So I had an NSV today too. I put on a pair of pants that I have been avoiding because before surgery they were super tight. Well, I put them on and they are comfortable now! YAY!:confused:

CONGRATZ BRANDY!!!

YAY LOTZA!!!!

Such a great feeling!!!

I personally, never dreamed that 9 months ago I would be in an 8. I was a 20/22 on surgery day. Only 17 more to go...so close, yet so far!

Ok, apparently the other website won't let me save pics of the dresses since they didn't show up....if you could look at them and tell me what you think that would be fab...

The website is www.watters.com, the line is the Wtoo collection, and the styles are style number 880 and style number 3733.

I love 3733 but I am a bit afraid my girls will fall out since it is so low cut. Although, we are wearing brown for our bridesmaid dresses and it is quite pretty in brown....decisions, decisions.

There are so many pretty ones I am having a hard time deciding.

I get to go pick out a bridesmaid dress tomorrow also, I have to dress like a girl twice in one month!!

Yikes!!

I concur with the 3733...I think both would be great, but the other one is satin and that'll just wrinkle and piss you off that it's wrinkled! The taffeta will wrinkle too, but the dress is made so that won't matter too much and you'll be able to just enjoy yourself. A properly fitting bra might negate the necessity for tape (although it IS handy!). Good luck and post pictures!!:confused:

Let us know how it goes! Hey, I showed DH your pics last night. He was SHOCKED at the difference. He said he couldn't believe that you had changed that much with a 56 lb loss

Wow, thanks, that's cool. I sent them to my sister who hadn't seen me for a few months and her response was "Holy shit!" :rolleyes2:

So, we embarked upon the dress shopping journey this morning. We got to Davids Bridal, and the girl there was so snotty to Shelli (the bride) that we wanted to snatch her up and leave. Just acted like we were putting her out, was rolling her eyes...just RUDE. We sucked it up and I discreetly complained to the manager about her later and they sent her home for the day.

Shelli found her bridal gown in about 20 minutes and it is absolutely gorgeous. Our bridesmaid gowns were a different story. We were told there (and at every other shop) that we would have to buy off the rack because both events are so soon in the future. We were getting black bridesmaid dresses, so you think this would be easy, right? Not!! Jen, the Maid of Honor, is pregnant, so she picked this empire waist chiffon flowy thing that just looked HORRIBLE on me. And they literally had no other dresses on the rack in my size in black. So we spent the entire rest of the day looking for a stupid dress. Do you know where I finally found one? At a consignment shop!! It is black satin, strapless with a fitted bodice, with pickups in the skirt. The only thing about it is it has an ugly rhinestone brooch on the front, but I am removing it because it is only secured by about two stitches. It looks nothing like Jens gown, but I am going to tie it in with hers by getting beaded shoes and jewelry because she has black beading on hers. $70. Not bad. And there was a lady there who said she would do the alterations for $20.

As far as my Marine Corp Ball gown goes....I found one I love at Davids Bridal and they can order it for me. I looked like a total hottie in it. But then I went to another store and found a similar dress (although not as cute) on clearance for a total of $25!!! But the color is a light grey, which does not look great on me. With my blonde hair it kind of washes me out.

So now my dilemma is this...do I be the cheapskate I am and buy the $25 dress, or do I get the super pretty one that is almost $200? Decisions, decisions. Please let me know if pictures would help! :rolleyes2:

And all my opinions on the dresses I asked about last night ended up being a moot point because the bridal shops told me that manufacturer takes 12 WEEKS to get dresses to them!! Yikes!!

I got a letter in the mail from the attorney today saying that they want to take the fence issue to trial?? WTF?? What is wrong with these people? All they have to do is provide a survey, which I am assuming they will have to do in court to prove their case, and I said I would move the fence if the survey says it is over the property line. Why make things more difficult than they need to be? I guess I just need to talk to the lawyer and ask him what the heck is going on.

These people perplex me. There is something seriously wrong with them. :drool: It is kind of starting to scare me.

And this is still my response to them (again, of course without the accompanying smile):rolleyes2:

I can honestly say I have never hated anyone so much in my life as I do these people. Actually, I can honestly say I have never hated anyone EXCEPT these people!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      April Surgery

My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
