THIGHPLASTY UNDER $10.00 (ten dollars)... (NOT TO OPEN IF EASILY OFFENDED)

 Thank you so much my beautiful sista!!!

 This is awesome! Thanks for sharing! :)

 Thank you! Thanks for allowing me to share....

My legs are a disaster, but I wear capris and pants instead, I haven't seen a pair of hose on anyone in years -- it's certainly cheaper than shapewear!  Creative.

Thanks!!! You rocked that black dress at the OH event ... with awesome boots ... now that is my winter alternative for MY disastrous legs  ... my spider veins look like a map in some areas ... and I am too chicken to have them lasered ... go figure...

Ok, OK! That's it. I am really going to try this. I have suffered long enough. I mean-if I am not hiding my arms, I am hiding my legs (calves). Like you, I lost MASS weight and well-apparently the excess skin didn't evaporate! (What a rip!)

My arms...my arms..weep..my arms!! They are such a mess. It's bad enough that I am so very pale and nearly a shade lighter than milk-but the skin traffic jam that happens at my elbow is nearly obscene!

I am in the UK, which translates to "Here we go-let's see what I can find which is the equivelent of the items you have outlined".

I cannot sew a button to save my life, but I am going to try this. I will let you know what I find here in my little tiny Lancashire town (Olde Towne) LOL!

Mmmkay-I will get back to you as soon as I check out what I can get my hands..or is it arms and legs on!?

Love you!

 If you can't find them let me know... I would not mind at all in fact I would just LOVE to ship a few boxes out to you ... there are 3 pairs in a box .. very inexpensive and last for-ever and through several washes ...  they don't tear or run unless you intentionally or accidentally rip them ....  I tried to get a site online where they can be ordered but they just list the stores ... I stocked up over the weekend at a store in Wallingford and found them for $4.50 per box of 3.  Make sure it is the one in the everyday support w/control top ...

Thanks so much! I just found the adhesive, it's on the slow boat from my old Homeland! LOL! I figure it will be here in the next couple weeks.

Now on to the L'eggs. Those are so far much more tricky to find! I will PM you and ask a few questions. I cannot figure out what my size would be and what about my darling wings? What size do we use on those?

Thanks again for all your help and kindness. It actually gave me a boost today. I don't think other people who do not struggle with the skin issue can understand how sad it can be not to be able to wear those pretty things!

Hugs,
T

Martita: So many of us thank you for your cleverness! Also have you thought about contacting any of the hose companies and perhaps marketing your product(s)? Seriously, I think you have a good thing out there that others would very much like to have perhaps even market at bariatric centers throughout the U.S. -Hey it's an idea right??? You rock girl... Love love love your thoughts and ideas as they occur.. keep them a comin my way !!! Thanks  Molly

Thanks for the encouragement Molly ... but I won't market some of my goofy ideas though. .. Some of my thoughts and ideas are also such big whoppers .. my goodness if I were to share some of those I would either have you in stitches or have you thinking that I have totally lost it already LOL ... like the time I decided to stuff my dawgs into these tight fitting shoes that were my size in lenght but too NARROW in width  ... so I decided to fix matters and wear the shoes anyway by ductaping around my foot to squish my bunions in and making my feet narrow-er so I could fit New York into New Jersey BUT at the end of the day there was a price to pay ... BAD IDEA ... lets call it a WHOPPER LOL.... yup ... it is all tracked in my digital journal ... I called it the shoes from hell .. but it was not the shoes ... it was ME being goofy LOL.... and of course my dufus husband thought it was funny after I crawled in the house on all fours my feet hurt so bad at the end of the day  and I could not get the shoes off ... he took pics while my son pried them off my feet ... that was back in 2008..
