So I have been building up my underwear collection over the past two size changes.  I am in a 18/20 right now and my 30/32 and 26/28 undies were not cutting it.  So I have over a dozen 22/24 and 18/20 (gotta love LB cacquie sales and undues for less then $5 with promotions) and boy I can get them all in one little draw instead of filling all three little drawers.  Love it, and filling sexy.  Now just got stop hubby wanting me to do a fashion show everytime I get new ones.

Girl, I'm right there with you on the LB cacique undies.  I lOVE LOVE LOVE them.  And I'm SO depressed that I'm on the lowest size now and will not be able to wear them soon enough.  Sigh...  Now I'm actually going to have to go out there and buy misc undies until I find that same perfect fit.  I suppose I should get over it though, there are worse things than fitting in cute panties again.  LOL

How about trying VS?  They have similar undies, and they even have a similar sale going on 5/$25.  Really cute ones too.  I usually go for the sales at LB then I look for additional discounts online.  usually you can find the codes online.  I got 5 pairs from LB for 5/$25 then additonal 15% off with a code I found online.  But congrats on the lowest size, that is great.

Just wait til you get to do that first shopping trip to Vicki's.  I carried my little pink bag all over the mall so proud of myself.

VS is a fav store of mine and my daughters!  We have monthly shopping trips, mom and daughter, every month and then Steve takes me usually once every or every other month for "our" shopping trip!  It is fabulous and you can get great deals.  I love the semi-annual sale!  You will be there before you know it and just FYI...the fashion shows only get requested more!

That's hilarious... I do the "fashion shows" too, but we've been calling it "thrift store fashion show" (even though I am sure my weight's not going to fluctuate that much more, I still shop the thrift store). I personally thought about hitting the VS at some point, but I still have issues getting it through my head that I could wear stuff there.

No matter what, you'll never catch me in such things as thongs. They looked uncomfortable pre-op and still look that way post-op. I kind of need something to keep the extra skin etc, held together as well. Is there anyone among the non-plastics post-WLS population who actually wears this type of stuff, or am I weird?

The tough part of WLS is not the first year, it's those that follow.

I have not had plastics and I wear them!  They really are not uncomfy to me but maybe I am just used to them.  I have been in them since my -100 lb loss.  It is a preference thing.

Oh my gosh I finally got new undies and I am SOOO excited! (From a 24 to a 16 so far...) My sweet sister gave me some of those cotton ones from VS for Christmas but mostly I just buy those 6-packs at Target of Hanes. Of course, I have no one to show them off for....

Anyway, congrats and I'm totally understanding your excitement on this one!!
