You look great and I want those Wonder Woman shorts!!!

You look fantastic ! That's my big concern...what if when I lose the weight I still have to stay covered because of excess skin. My insurance won't pay and I can't afford it. So happy for you. You are doing great and look super.

Thanks everyone! I feel great!!! 10 days post op and I already have most of my energy back. The first few days were tough but soooo worth it!
Posting another pic taken today at 10 days post op.

The preop diet is the worst part. People lose weight at different rates. I happen to be an oddball who can go weeks without losing anything and then, all at once, 5 lbs will disappear. It is so strange that I often wonder if my scale is broken but I have purchased several and its always the same. I agree with the previous poster who said that lapband helps with obsessing over food. This is the number one reason why I would get a lapband again, even if I never lose another ounce. The preop diet offers this benefit as well. I felt like it reset my body. It was hard...the hardest part... but you can get through it.

Weird! I have a friend named MaryFran...and when I saw your post, I was like "What is she doing here?!" (She's a staunch vegan and has never needed WLS. lol)
BTW, ya'll, I only have a few of them in my closet at this point, but the first time I fit into a size 14 (at my highest I was inching toward a 26), I broke down in tears in the Torrid dressing room because I was so overjoyed.
