I am so shocked at how my sizes have changed also
Bra: 42DD to 36c
panties: size 9(snuggly) to size 7 (loose)
pants: size 20 to size 7
shirts: xxl or size 20/22 to medium
Shoes 9w(Tight) to 7 1/2 - 8 reg width
And I can actually buy stuff in Victoria Secrets and Fredricks.
My husband sure likes that!
My biggest problem is When I was bigger couldn't find the sizes I need now I see the bigger sizes and have to search for my size.
I am trying to decide if I wast a TT. I have excess skin but I could hide it in my clothes not sure if I want to endure the pain.
Good Luck with your TT. and other surgeries you are wanting.

Way to go on the loss. I too am shocked at how much can change in such a short amount of time. I have gone from:
44DDD bra to a 36D
30-32 pant and pantie to a 8 panty and 14-16 pant
30-32 (4x) top to a med/larg
9 WWW to a 8 1/2 med shoe.
Keep up the good work and you will be at goal before you know it.

Glad to see you found us. Your doing wonderful on your loss and congrats on the tummy tuck. I have the paperwork into insurance right now, just waiting on answer, as I also have a hernia that needs repaired at the same time.
Keep up the good work.

Hi Jennifer, me too, just found this one today.
I'm 5'6", started at 329 lbs, I'm 187 lbs now. 23 lbs from my goal. Woohoo on your tummy tuck. I've got my paperwork in for approval now. If I get it approved, I won't be able to have the surgery till September, dang it all, a bunch of people at work are having babies. So I have to wait till they are back. What were they thinking!!!
Sounds like you're doing wonder. Keep up the good work.
