(Men beware) Its silly but I'm happy

Today I am happy about 2 things. 1. I am now wearing a 42 DDD bra, I was wearing a 54 DD pre op. How my girls spread into a DDD from a DD I don't know, but I am too grateful to question. Now this is important b/c one of my major post surgery goals is to be able to buy a bra at Victoria Secret. (I am 26 years old and I have ALWAYS had to wear a no frills, old Grandma bra. Yuck!) But when I go down just 1 more size I can go get my bra! I am sooo excited that part of me wants to go now! But I will wait until I weigh 225 (another goal) which is 13 lbs away. 2. I no longer qualify for surgery. At my weight and BMI I would have to have major co morbities in order to qualify b/c I am less than 100 lbs over weight. I haven't been this little since sometime in middle school. I work in a school and when I walked through the student cafeteria today some girl stage whispered to her friend. "I can't stand her, she thinks she is so cute." And then they all looked at me. I was sooo happy! I have never been envied in my life! I walked through again during their lunch period, just to see if she would say something else! I'm sorry, I know these are little things. But I am just so grateful for this surgery and all the good things that have come from it, I had to share.

Christine, YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!!! You should be so proud of yourself sweetie, your doing a great job and you look fantastic. I think its so great that people envy you now, its about time. I can honestly say, I love it when people compliment me or take a double take instead of whispering about how fat I am or how disgusting I look, and shouldn't I be embarassed. NO MORE FOR ME EITHER!!!!!! We deserve all the looks, whistles, nice remarks and gestures. Even when we were obese we should of been treated that way, but unfortunately people are so ignorant today. The heck with them we are great people. I am so proud of you, great job!!!! Hope to see you on Saturday at the walk. Hugs KimC

Hey Girl, Good Going! So happy your enjoing the fruits of your labor. Your doing a wonderful job so be happy! Take care, Julio

Way to work it girl. You should be proud of yourself. You are doing a fantastic job and it shows. Just a word of advice on the Victoria's Secret thing. It gets obsessive. I am now obsessed with bras and clothes from them. I can't get enough. I love it, love it, love it. It won't be long before you're in them so keep up the hard work and never be afraid to reward yourself when you hit a goal. Maggie

way to go... im new to the board but not new to surgery. I will be 2 years post op this thanksgiving. I have reached my goal weight of 112 llbs and girl I envy your DDD's.. I have went from a 44DD down to a 32B. All I have left is fibroidel tissue, no breast tissue left at all. I know it sounds silly, I dont miss the fat but I do miss my big breasts. I like you am very glad I had the surgery. It saved my life. Jeanine Kramer Keep up the good work...
