Laurie,
yes its a good thing you waited for after WLS to have your reduction done. You will find big changes are coming. I was never big breasted but being heavy made it look like I had something. I have gone from a 38C to a 34C.
I have to get my wedding and engagement rings re-sized b/c they are huge and I have gone from size 8 shoe to a size 7.
Well clothes.... I had to get rid of EVERYTHING!!!! I am down to a size 6 and loving it. Still shopping to replace all the clothes I had to get rid off. Its hard b/****pt losing weight. I am trying to hold steady with the size 6. I do not want to lose anymore weight. But with every season change I need different stuff. Everything I wore last summer will not fit this summer. I buy all my slacks and pants from the goodwill store. I have been lucky and have found all of them with tags still on them so whoever donated them never wore them. Tops I am buying from the clearance racks. I have a great selection b/c I now wear size small. There is alot of small stuff.
Its all worth it.!! but exercise and weights are a must!! Good luck.!

Thanks Sam. Made me laugh with your great description. I was already so heavy and large breasted before the surgery. I was actually considering Breast reduction but was advised to do the gastric bypass first. Seems I got good advice. I'll have to shorten up my "socks" later.
Thanks again.
Laurie
Thanks again.

Hi Laurie,
lol. I will just say that before long, your boobs will look like socks hanging from your chest. Its terrible but true. I am sure somewhere along the line I will have to do something about that. In my experience of this weight lose. That is something I will not be able to fix w/o surgery.
I found that doing weights helped for me for the sagging .I have a bit in my thights, but I think once I get back to the gym I can tighten them up some more so it won't be so bad. The same for my upper arms.
Good Luck

Thanks Mag. Did he recommend any specific exercises? Sounds like you have had tremendous success so far.

Topic: Chat time?
Hi one and all,
I tried to go to chat last night. There was no one there. Did I have the time wrong? I thought it was 5PM Mountain Time on Monday's, Maybe I got routed to the wrong chat room. I've hear of that happening before. Does anyone know how Patrece is doing? Is she in school? Mag
