Lauren congrats on the NSV!, Makes shopping a bit more fun.

Mindy you look great! I found a before Pic last night (the only one I think I allowed to be taken @a wedding) and I'm just SO reluctant to post before/after pics right now - You rock for sharing!

Congratulations, Laurend!! I hate to break it to you, but if you were wearing a 14W you ARE in regular sizes. That's easily a 14 or 16 depending on cut. And that's what they sell in REGULAR stores!!

It took me a long time to even FIND a before pic and when i did it took me a long time to post them , I had to feel good enough about myself , i think it was at about 50lbs I posted on here ?

Congratulations. Never having to shop in plus stores was my number 2 reason for getting the band. I'm in a 14 now and they get too loose in a couple of hours size 10/12 here I come!

I had a great NSV today too:)

We had a local "home show", where various businesses go and show their wares, well one of our compeitors went up to my son who was minding the show today, and told him, "Man, I saw your mom in here last night and she's HOTT", can you imagine your 34 year old son passing that remark on to ya, wahoo!

By the way, size 12 was my goal, not a # on the scales, love my new 12's and the new me, oh yeah, did I mention I'm 58, LOL.

Wow, this thread exploded while I was gone!

That is awesome!!! :wink: Wow if I was in 12's I would be content! I haven't been in 12's since maybe 4th grade, and they didn't have 12's.. i was wearin MEN's pants.

WE NEED PICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :biggrin2:

I'll put 'em up as soon as I get them! My most recent ones were taken over Christmas, so I need to have some more taken. I just never remember to take my own camera when I go home for a visit, and I can't get any of my family members to email me the ones from their cameras (my parents are technophobes and my brother never remembers). :blush:
Thanks ya'll . Laruend I didnt mean to hijack your thread with my pics i hate when people do that .

I want to see your pics. this can be the " Look at my new jeans thread" LMAO

Mindy

Hey, hijack away, you look GREAT!

:smile2::thumbup::thumbup:

Yeah, I just never got up the nerve to go looking in the regular departments, for fear that I wouldn't fit. No fear of that now! :biggrin2:

      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!
