Banded July 1 and a week later I went shopping with my sister and her kids. I found a DKNy dress in size 18w for 15 bucks. Post surgery I was a 22w (maybe 24) but I wouldn't buy larger than a 22. I saw that coral dress n it was a steal at 15 bucks. I bought it for my trip to Vegas in September in hopes it would fit (kept receipt in bag had 6 months to return just in case i love Macys !!! ) anyway Well I tried it on yestedat 1 month to the day I bought it and it fits ... It fits and looks nice it might be a lil big next month but ill get the sucker tailored . I'm super happy and wanted to share my 2nd first NSV... The first one was walking Into an all tone favorite bakery and had no Desire to purchase a dam thing to eat . Ordered the cake I needed for a party n left empty handed... A first !!!!

I needed to share with my lap band family because my real world friends and family get happy but don't see the joy way we do:)

Yay! NSVs are the BOMB! I foresee many more in your future!

It's so great to try on clothes that you fit into when you don't expect it. Enjoy the dress and enjoy Vegas.

Yeah for NSV and DKNY!

Thats great so exciting when you start getting into smaller sizes thats when you can really see the difference! I lovr hearing these posts they get me pumped

Awesome. I had many clothes i kept from when i was smaller. Maybe one day i can fit in those size 14 pants again.

Congratulations on your accomplishments. Keep on going.

I do !!! it just reinforcers the fact that I made the right decision to get banded. And it was a much needed pick me up. Crazy as it sounds I hate that im starting to look frumpy in my old clothes but I have some size 18 jeans I hope to be in by fall n ill deal with the to big tops for now trying to hold off buying anything new since I will not be this size next summer or fall

Yay! NSVs are the BOMB! I foresee many more in your future!
