gosherrie 2 Posted April 15, 2014 Hi Virgo63, I am 51 and anticipating gastric sleeve surgery in May sometime. I will find out more next week about the actual date. Wow! down to a size 20 already, that's great! A friend of my said that while she was in the losing phase she would get clothes at Goodwill, and then exchange them for the next size smaller until she reached her stable weight, I thought I would try that too. I can't wait to be able to buy smaller sized garments, I haven't bought clothes in years! Thanks for telling us about the bitchy mood, I already feel like a bitch sometimes now, I hope it doesn't get too bad post-op! The one thing I really want to get someday is a sexy push-up bra! and maybe a little black dress. Hope things continue to go well for you. gosherrie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigGirlPanties 957 Posted April 15, 2014 I am a Goodwill advocate too! I had to get some dresses for a cruise, I don't wear them... I got 3 at Goodwill (color of the week too) so they cost me about $10!!! There was NO way I was going to spend a lot of money for something I will barely wear...
