Last week I ordered myself some jeans as a birthday present. Well they arrived today (perfect timing) and I was really excited because I ordered a size 16 and as a long shot, a size 14 too. I thought that maybe the 16's would fit, but never imagined the 14's would, but they DID Now they do have a slight stretch to them, but I was able to get the 14's on & buttoned. I really can't believe it! I'm so thankful for the opportunity to have the surgery and to have found such supportive friends and support groups! A big Thank You to all the fabulous people here, you guys are amazing! And for those of you on the journey to your surgery, keep going, even when it feels like you can't continue because of road blocks in the process.... It's worth it, getting your life back is the greatest gift you can give yourself and your family
