So I had to go buy some new bras today . . . it was getting pretty sad trying to make the old ones make due . . . but . . . the surprise came 1) that I could get some in a store instead of special ordering them, and 2) that I went from a 54C to a 48DD . . . OMG where the hell did THAT come from! LOL . . . So Lane Bryant has "buy 2 and get 2 free", so I bought 2 I can wear now - and two in a smaller size . . . I'm planning ahead! lol

And then . . .on the way out of the mall . . .I bought 2 rings with opals (my birthstone) and tanzanite (from the S. Africa mine - not Iraq/Iran) . . . and my pinky fingers are happy . . . until I lose more weight and start moving the rings to other fingers

and YEA Chargers (for those of you who follow football!)

Congrats! I can't wait to start buying smaller clothes, especially bras!

Congrats!!!! I treated myself to some jewelry as well!!! Never used to wear it as I didn't want to draw attention to myself!!!

We deserve perks for all our hard work!!!

I have a necklace of my grandma's that dosent fit I am pulling it out and pinning it up so I can try it on every so often I cant wait till my neck is thiner so I can wear it.

WOW! Congrats!

I did the bra gig about 2 weeks after my surgery. I'm down from a 46DD to a 42 C or D depending on the cut.

Isn't it fun to get new stuff?

I got a great right hand diamond ring for Christmas and was going to go get it resized (from a 7 to an 8) and decided not to... I'm going to wear that ring in a few months!!!!! I'm in need of finding one of those plastic ring guards thingies for my wedding band and engagement ring. I have a TON of jewelry that I'm going to have to either resize or... wear on different fingers!

Anybody else having shoe issues? I have lost a lot of weight in my feet already and have a fantastic wardrobe of shoes (I work VERY near the Zappos.com warehouse/distribution center/store and have some FABULOUS shoes!). Betsey Johnson, Christian LaCroix, Dolce & Gabbanna, OH MY! I have even contemplated stuffing the toes!!!

Julie,

Yes, I'm having foot issues. Why is it the only place I can see any difference is in my shoes and my rings???? I sort of did this banding for a WHOLE different weight loss! j/k

It is great that we are seeing results in one month! I know that with any other "solution" I would already have been gaining it all back by now.

Way to go everyone! Keep up the great work

I have the foot issues too . . .I had ordered some 10WW's online . . . and went to wear one pair after Christmas . . . and kept walking out of them . . . they are history for me :rofl:. I don't have many shoes . . . but maybe I'll be able to go buy regular ones soon . . . and I would LOVE to be close to Zappos!
