  1. Oh, and hospital provided me with those thick socks with grippy stuff on the bottom.
  2. The hospital had me change into a gown without undies. (I had the joy of learning they still want you commando if you're on your cycle.). It was an outpatient procedure so I was allowed to put them on right before I left. I will say the Fruit of the Loom Flexible Fit undies are amazing! They were perfect for right after surgery (soft, breathe, and fit really nicely) and have been great while I'm losing weight. I've lost 54 lbs and haven't had to replace these panties yet. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Fit-for-Me-by-Fruit-of-the-Loom-Women-s-Flexible-Fit-Brief-4-Pack-Plus-Size-Panties/49937779 Avoid the other Fruit of Loom ones, Soft something unless your waist is MUCH smaller than your hips. The waistband is a lot smaller with very little give.
  3. I've got the same problem right now. Of course the majority of the 50 lbs I lost had to come off from my breasts instead of my waist. ?. I suppose I can rely on push up bras and inserts until it evens out again. I miss my curves ?.
  4. And now I can't get the image of Daisy Duck out of my head. ?
  5. Disney World and Disneyland are friendly to "Pooh sized" guests as some like to say. I've been size 28/30 and no problems riding any of their rides. Six Flags and other amusement parks, not so much. I can't personally vouch for Universal Studios, but I've heard they are more Pooh sized friendly than 6 Flags, but not as much as Disney.
  6. So glad you're okay and didn't need additional surgery! Continuing to pray for healing.
