I've never stepped foot in either of those stores but I loved Fashion Bug and Dress Barn cuz they both has plus sizes and small sizes. But I do get thoze damn catalogs from woman within ( ugly, granny clothes) . I also loved The Avenue but they left my area. -

Help! I'm soooo very afraid of blood clots.
Rycherchick replied to Super Echelon's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Its also better to be safe than sorry. About 2 weeks after surgery, I was having discomfort in my rt calf it was tender to the touch also. I called my surgeons office to let them know and they made arrangements for Me to go to hosp to have a doppler scan. They don't Mess around when It comes to B.C. luckily I didn't have one, it was prob a pulled muscle or something but I was scared shitless as well. I felt like a dork but the Dr said its better to have Peace of mind. -

I was craving Corned beef and cabbage and usually make it for St Pats day. I made one today in my c rock pot and it was huge. My hubby and son do not like It so I have gobs left over. It was good but only a few bites and its way salty for me. Maybe ill take it to work. -
When Did You Eat Pizza?
Rycherchick replied to Lollyx3's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
There is a place here in Md called Gentlemen Jims and it has the best pizza I've ever tasted. I've been hooked since 1995. I think for my birthday in July I'm gonna get a small pizza from then. That should be plenty of time, 7 mos out. All this pizza talk is making me want one although Sleevie Wonder couldnt handle It lol -

Who has been more supportive - your fat friends or your skinny friends?
Rycherchick replied to bonita19's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Omg, I cant believe someones friend would say, Great, nowI will be the fattest person in the group? Who the hell are some of these " Friends"? I am older so I dont surround myself with shallow people. I have a few friends but tbey are all loving and uplifting. I could never be friends with anyone who is jealous of me. I guess its a 40`s thing. Everyone is supportive of me. You gotta cut people who dont have your best inyerests. -

45lbs and counting down..
Rycherchick replied to Vitae's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
6 wks out close to 40. -
I see a lot of people on here who have had a lap band and then have the sleeve. Is there only a certain amount that you can lose with tbe lb ? I am curious to know why people dont lose with a lap band. Are thdy really phasing them out? My friend had one in 05 and she only lost 37 lbs and I want to ask her why but I dont want to upset her.
