So I had to go buy some new bras today . . . it was getting pretty sad trying to make the old ones make due . . . but . . . the surprise came 1) that I could get some in a store instead of special ordering them, and 2) that I went from a 54C to a 48DD . . . OMG where the hell did THAT come from! LOL . . . So Lane Bryant has "buy 2 and get 2 free", so I bought 2 I can wear now - and two in a smaller size . . . I'm planning ahead! lol

And then . . .on the way out of the mall . . .I bought 2 rings with opals (my birthstone) and tanzanite (from the S. Africa mine - not Iraq/Iran) . . . and my pinky fingers are happy . . . until I lose more weight and start moving the rings to other fingers :)

and YEA Chargers (for those of you who follow football!)

WOW! Congrats!

I did the bra gig about 2 weeks after my surgery. I'm down from a 46DD to a 42 C or D depending on the cut.

Isn't it fun to get new stuff?

I got a great right hand diamond ring for Christmas and was going to go get it resized (from a 7 to an 8) and decided not to... I'm going to wear that ring in a few months!!!!! I'm in need of finding one of those plastic ring guards thingies for my wedding band and engagement ring. I have a TON of jewelry that I'm going to have to either resize or... wear on different fingers!

Anybody else having shoe issues? I have lost a lot of weight in my feet already and have a fantastic wardrobe of shoes (I work VERY near the Zappos.com warehouse/distribution center/store and have some FABULOUS shoes!). Betsey Johnson, Christian LaCroix, Dolce & Gabbanna, OH MY! I have even contemplated stuffing the toes!!!

Julie,

Yes, I'm having foot issues. Why is it the only place I can see any difference is in my shoes and my rings???? I sort of did this banding for a WHOLE different weight loss! j/k

It is great that we are seeing results in one month! I know that with any other "solution" I would already have been gaining it all back by now.

Way to go everyone! Keep up the great work

Steph

I have the foot issues too . . .I had ordered some 10WW's online . . . and went to wear one pair after Christmas . . . and kept walking out of them . . . they are history for me :rofl:. I don't have many shoes . . . but maybe I'll be able to go buy regular ones soon . . . and I would LOVE to be close to Zappos!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
