 |  Fashion Show!
There is a seminar for WLS graduates where I had surgery coming up this month. They have speakers by psychologists, nutritionists, and plastic surgeons. OHHHHH and did I mention there is a FASHION SHOW!? And I was asked to be in it! AHHHHHHHHHHHH.  I can't believe I said yes....it was months ago and sounded okay but now I am so scared. I am trying to remain positive and I get to go pick out my 2 outfits this week. (Hey, a reason to shop!) I really don't want to be up on a stage flaunting myself in front of a bunch of strangers!  I am sure I will post them for suggestions since everyone will be judging me!! One bit of advice I could use is has anyone found a GREAT bodysuit that holds you in. (Mid leg to below the chest). I have spanx like this but they are now too big, and would buy more unless you all know of a better brand. I don't care what it costs, if it works!

i found some at walmart but to be honest once you get down in size they are not all that 'tight' which is supposed to be a good thing  LOL! congrats on the fashion show.

I've heard from EVERYONE that Spanx is definitely the best. Expensive, but worth it!

You go for it girl. You will make us proud. You look great and will be beautiful. looking forward to the pics. Have you looked at the Dr. Reys body suits? I have heard they are good. They sell them at Sears and on QVC. He also has a web site. Good luck...
