I'm 18 days post-op and still on liquids (full). I lost 12 pounds in 12 days post-op, and then hit a wall. I figured it was a hormonal thing and it would pass and I'd get back on the WL train. Well it should have passed by now, been 6 days, but weight is not budging. I'm getting in my protein, vits, fluids and about 600 cal. a day on liquids. So I have to ask: WHEN does this weight start coming off? I figure the 12 pounds was likely just retained fluids from after surgery, etc. I'm starting to feel I could do this without surgery; what's the answer? I'm not even on mushy foods yet.:biggrin2:

Okay, you guys have just about convinced me to not go to VS. For me, comfort is what is most important. Well, maybe just one sexy negligee once I reach goal from VS will be called for. But, in terms of bras, if I am in them all day long, they must be comfy.

I hit a stall at 3 weeks also. Happens to everyone. Just keep that in mind and know that the scale will move again!

Oh my DD swears that VS bras are really comfortable. I think once you get to that stage, just go try some on. You can also get them on ebay much cheaper. (or so she says)

I'd STRONGLY suggest going and getting properly measured/fitted at a bra store before going out and spending a lot of money at VS or anywhere else -- if you're not wearing the right size bra - and they say 4 out of 5 women are in the wrong size - then they are not going to be comfortable no matter what ... granted, even if they are the right size, they still may be uncomfortable, but at least you'll know it's not because it's the wrong size.

LOL...so now when someone tells you to pull up your big girl panties...you'll have to say, "heck no"...I've got my sexy panties on and they are FEELING GOOD!! Okay...I must admit...I don't know if I will go there; however, thongs could be an option!!!! I'm going to try them for sure...

Congratulations on having a good time and enjoying yourself!!!
