great info lacie - thanks so much!!

now, being the accessory w**** I am (lol) - I MUST know where you got that beautiful feather necklace?!!??

[LacieMC 136]

Hi blondi, I believe I picked up the feather at either Macy's or Kohls...cant remember... its a fun one...its all blingy! I love that i can wear fun hip jewelry now! I always felt stupid trying to wear statement pieces when i was bigger. Thanks!!!

Thank you for sharing your experience.

For those of us who are still in the planning process of getting our surgery it's SUPER helpful to hear other's stories!

Thanks for sharing! I'm 3 weeks post op and already hit a stall. I'm so upset about this. I don't know what else I can do to make the weight come off. Any suggestions?
