My puter doesn't let me go to that site. They must have naughty nighties, so I'll look from work tomorrow - just don't tell my work!

I need a new camera but I have a good chance of winning one at the Slumber Convention in March :)

I already took the dress off before checking the pics so they're fuzzy. Sorry, but I like it that way cause it distorts my distorted flabby arms! Can someone flip & shrink this?

Paula, nope, we aren't wearing masks to the formal but I haven't put on a face or hair yet. Hey, there's an idea for getting to work on time, just wear a feathered mask.

I have to hijack my own thread for a second. Chris was looking over my shoulder and saw a screen name and said, "WHO? ROAD QUEEN?" I've told him about all the banded biker babes before, but it just now registered in his coconut so he wants to know when you'll be here. Celest? Asphalt? Nana? Open invite!

And thanks for the compliment! I'm going to keep my camera on fuzzy mode from now on!

Now, where does an Amazon get a onezie strapless girdle?

Well... my favorite is Frederick's of Hollywood. Sexy and plus-size. Lane Bryant (online store not online catalouge) is the next best. I've seen strapless body shapers at both recently.

Hold on --I've got two dresses borrowed from a friend that I can pass on.

One is long black velvet, sleevless, round neck with a slit up the front--column style It is a size sixteen. You and I have just about the same stats--you are probably smaller in the boobs than me. I got tons of compliments on this dress.. Very comfy dress. I wore it to the companies Christmas party. The other is black with a full tafetta skirt. It has a black velvet top, sleevelss also. If you'd like, I can take some digital photos tonight and forward them on.

Thanks, Sal, but I bought the plum one over the weekend. However, I never went to the prom, never had a wedding dress, never did formal too well. Now that I fit into a pretty dress, I think I'll start a collection. I'm taking any and all plus size formal wear! I'll rent them out, or play dress up, or put them on my husband for (let's not go there.)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
