Lose100

I wouldn't worry about the menstrual cramps because the post op pain medication should help with the cramps.

Yesterday, I was able to wear a dress that I HAVE NOT been able to wear in years. I brought the dress in 2009 as an incentive to lose weight. I forgot all about it until yesterday. I was in my closest looking for a dress to wear to church when out of the blue I remember the dress that was packed away in the basement. It felt soooooooo good to finally be able to wear it. But the best victory is that I finally did something about losing weight and being successful. Before being banded, I wore 2X dresses and tops and size 24 in bottoms. Now, I can wear size large in dresses and tops and 18-20 in bottoms. I am so excited.
