The first picture is the dress I wore to work yesterday.

The next two are the Ralph Lauren dress that I bought for my 50th birthday dinner.  I think (I hope!) the dress looks better in person... it doesn't photograph particularly well.  (Sorry that I didn't get a pic of it on Saturday with my hair and makeup done up...) 

Both are clearly proof that not everyone who has WLS loses all of their boobs!

Happy Birthday, love your dress!

50 looks beautiful -- you don't look 50 are you sure you are?

I have always loved Jane Fonda's quote when she turned 50.  "You don't look like 50." Her: "Well, I'm 50 and this is what 50 looks like." And you look fabulous, a perfect 50!!

Cheese and crackers, woman!! You are a knock out! Love both of the dresses and the birthday dress is sensational.

Totally jealous of the boobs. I had none when I started this stuff and now I have even less. *sadface*

Happy Birthday!!

 You look fabulous Lora!  You have an amazing shape and you certainly look no where near 50 :)  Are you sure you didn't accidently add a decade or two?

Nope, I'm sure, LOL.  I don't think I look 50, either... Certainly not the way my grandmother looked at 50 many years ago!
