Gastric Bypass Surgery Support Group
Gastric bypass (GBP) is any of a group of similar operative procedures used to treat morbid obesity, a condition which arises from severe accumulation of excess weight in the form of fatty tissue, and the health problems ("co-morbidities") which result. If you are considering gastric bypass or have had it, join the community where we share our experiences and find support.
My BF and I are flying to CT on the 22nd for his mother's wedding and we had to go shopping today so he could buy a suit, I needed a purse and a few other things.
The big thing for me was that I wanted to go to Victoria's Secret and get some nice bras to give the girls a boost, I needed a good push-up bra. It was kind of intimidating because I'd never shopped in there before, it was always kinda taboo for me because I was a fat girl and that store is for skinny people.
They were super nice to me and very helpful in measuring me and giving me one of every bra to try on so I could find the ones I liked.. I ended up buying 4!! They are SO comfortable and give the impression that the girls have been re-inflated! LOL (Lu, NO I'm not modeling - haha)
We also went to Old NAVY and I found 4 cute tops size MEDIUM!! for $15. I had SO much fun shopping for the first time in my life, I've NEVER been excited about shopping as I was today. I think I'm gonna turn into a clothes whore now. LMAO!!
