bondgirl 0 Posted June 3, 2006 I about messed my britches a little while ago when I fit in my Mom's size 12 pants! I was able to snap and zip!!!! OMG, I am the happiest thing on this earth right now. I told my mom the other night that I wanted to be in a 12 by this time and low and behold what happened??? My Mom said "Angie you look smaller than me lets try on these pants." I tried them on and they fit. I jumped like tigger all throughout the house I was sooo happy!!!!! This lapband has done wonders for my spirit and my happiness. I was so unhappy and so unhealthy the way that I was. Life is looking up girls!! WOOT! Angie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dragonwillow 0 Posted June 4, 2006 Oh Angie, I'm so happy for you. I can't wait to get there myself. Kristen just got into an 11/12 too. She is doing so good with her "dieting". I on the oher hand went to a "taste of charlotte" last night. LOL It was fun, and ran into a friend I hadn't seen in a while...and he noticed how much I'd lost...which is nice, since I sometimes don't see it. Looks like you need to go shopping....I know a great thrift store. I do most of my shopping there recently since it's hard to pay full price when you don't anticipate being in the clothe long. Funny story...I bought a 1x top with the built in bra thing...i was so huge not only where the ladies swimming around in that cup...but it just hung...when it was suppouse to be a tight fitting cami!

Dragonwillow 0 Posted June 4, 2006 There is the guradian angel one on 49, near westinghouse. Money from it goes to alzetimers research. But my favorite is the Community thrift on Freedom Drive near 85. I buy a ton of stuff there for not only me (the capris I had on at the last meeting 4.98 and they were BRAND new) but buy stuff for the kids all the time. I've been to the one in lake wylie when I visit dad (the one at 5 points) but its hard to find things in there in my opinion because everything is lumped together and its so tight and crowded. Diane...I don't look all that different...though Kristen...well she has lost 10lbs and has grown taller...so she is looking TOTALLY different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
