OK, I figure it's time for me to show more than my tiny little face over there since everyone else has been so brave. I don't really think I look a whole lot different, and neither is a good picture to begin with. You'll just have to trust me when I tell you I'm a whole lot prettier in person.

This is before, in early summer 2003.

I'm non-existent as well. I guess you and I are the only two tall plus-size girls on the entire planet. Funny how all the tall sizes are always first to sell out at the plus size stores.

DELARLA!!! i am 5'-9" myself!!!!

and heres my deal i am the only tall plus size girl with NO BOOBS!!!!

i bought a size 20 bathing suit from newport news, long torso cause i am tall and bathing suits arent really comfy unless i get the long torso.

anyhow this darn thing was made for a plus sized girl with big boobs. it actually has fabric gather where my boobs should be. it is AWFUL. i still am wearing cause i only swim at my parents house but my mother and i laughed our a$$es off at my lack of cleavage for my sexy suit!

Shelly, no you are not! I have no boobs. That purple bra pic, I swear it's the angle and fat. That bra takes all my side fat and turns it into boobs. They should advertise that bra on QVC. The lines would explode with orders. I got it at The Avenue and next time I go will get one in every size and every color.

I've always been on the Itty Bitty Titty Committee and wore a 38A before gaining 100 pounds. Once when I starved myself down 60 pounds, this chick yelled across my work, "Lisa done lost all her boobies." I guess I'm lucky to gain evenly and not just all in my butt!

And I HATE the way they construct all bathing suits with all that extra lining as if we're all D cups. I always cut the lining out. Sure, spend $60 bucks on a new thing and slice it up. Same with underwires, they get cut out right away.

Better to talk about boobs than my port. Thanks for the laugh.

You crack me up Lisa! I am on the committee as well! It really ticks me off that all of the plus sized clothes are designed with melons in mind and here I sit with plums.

ALEX... OMIFRICKINGGOSH!!!!!!!!!! The difference is amazing!!!!! You look FABulous and I am so glad you shared your pics! Every before and after picture that I see gives me more an more hope for what the band might help me accomplish! Thanks Alex!

I too am a member of the "boobless brigade". Of course with what weight I've lost, that's the first place to go. Maybe we can all get a group discount on implants.

Alexandra, you look great - much slimmer, I can see a big difference, are you mad saying it doesn't show???!!! Well done xx

Alexandra,

You look Fabulous and you inspire me!!!!!!! THank you for all you do for the people on this board!
