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!)

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

Steph

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!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
