Went to go shopping yesterday and I was very happy to know that I use to wear a 24 and now I wear an 18/20 yes the happy dance is going on. Even though Imay not be losing the pounds at the present moment the inches are still coming off. I am so HAPPY. This journey don't get me wrong its tough but the rewards are so great.

Individuals who I work with don't have the knowledge of the surgery I have had. But they tell me I am looking great and it feels so nice to actually get a compliment!

I know the feeling....I only got one pair of pants for work. I don't want to buy much more than that because I don't know how this weight will come off. I mean the inches are coming off but the pounds are still there at the present moment. Go figure it's all good though I am still happy.

Hi Fluffy! Isn't it a great feeling? My pants have always been a 22/24. I just got some 18/20's. And new undies, as they were falling off .

I wish I had measured myself before surgery!

Keep up the great work!

I know it is such a great feeling. I only bought one pair of pants because I needed them for work.I really don't want to buy anything more than that until I need to.Congratulations on your size reduction as well.  Did you take photos the before and afters? If so match them up side by side that is the only way I knew I was losing inches and pounds other than that my clothes being loose was a good sign for me. You can go to www.imikimi.com and they have photo frames you can add your photos to and do side by sides on. I have some posted on my page if you want to know what I am talking about. I wish I have measured myself to but visuals are just as good.
