Being visible. It's quite a change isn't it? I have had regain but I remember the new visibility. People of both sexes were nicer. People smiled more and asked those daily little questions about the weather.Men held open doors. Now I'm back to being invisible..not exactly invisible but looked at with scorn or pity.
What I would say is that you get to be out in the world. You get to be your fab self. You owe nothing to their feelings or desires. You get to walk around normal sized and visible. It can be really fun. You get to get used to a friendlier world. And if a man is inappropriate think of a good verbal smack them up the side of the face line.
And boobs get looks. I wish I had little ones. They didn't shrink when I did.

Welcome Kala
Good luck on your upcoming surgery. OH is a great place for information and support. Having WLS is the greatest thing I've ever done for myself. I feel like a completely different person.
Let us know your progress and hang in there!
