Sort of a wow

So i am 10 weeks out this Thursday as of today i have lost 60lbsi wiehg 269 wow! I finally had to break down and go get new clothes but i only bought 1 capri in a 22 one short in a 22 and one short in a 24 and 2 shirts in a 18/20 and one in a 22/24 i started in a snug 26/28 sometimes a 30/32.  I haven't worn a 18/20 since i got married almost 11 yrs ago holy crap. I went to my surgeons office to see the clothing exchange it was a joke i tell ya. Gonna start going once a weekish to good will and consignements hopefully.  Had to buy new bras to only got 3 right now lol. Next is undies but not sure what size to get lol. In 8 more pounds i will weigh less than my hubby for the frst time ever since i have known him.

Anyway how is everyone else doing?

What do you mean by "sort of a wow?!?"  What you wrote is AMAZING!!! Do not short change yourself - 60 pounds in 10 weeks is FAN-FLIPPIN-TASTIC!!  I am so happy for you  

UM YEAH.......that is certainly a WOW..........your next WOW will be in a couple of weeks when those don't fit anymore........LOL

I bought underwear and picked out ones that were 2 sizes smaller than what would "fit" and those lasted 2 weeks before they were to big!

I'm about ready to retire some of my undies too.  LOL

Have fun at the resale shops.  I love going to those types of stores.

You are doing fabulous!

Keeping up with undies is harder than regular clothes!!! Nothing is worse than your panties falling off under pants that are too big too LOL! I don't know what to do with this bra situation, I am top-heavy but my bras are getting too big. I wonder how big they sell bras at Wal-Mart?

I've seen up to 48 and the occasional 50 in band size..and a variety of cup sizes.  Most of the larger sizes are the boxed bras, though.

I passed under my husband's weight, too, this week.  One of my mini goals!  Yeah us!

WOW 60 lbs is great!!  I guess I'm more of the tortoise than the hare.  I've lost an average of 2 lbs a week since surgery (total 18lbs in 9 weeks).  But slow and steady wins the race. 

I've been having a hard time with my bras.  I've only bought a couple new ones (size 44).  My size 50 & 52 bras keep coming unhooked on me (front hook bras).  They are so expensive. Also I've been wearing some dresses to work that have been in the back of my closet for the last 8 years.  I need to get some work clothes.  Unfortunately the goodwill and salvation army stores around here don't have much in plus sizes, and what they do have is too casual for work.

I haven't really checked our good wills lately it is hard to find plus sized clothes there. 

"sort of a wow"?!? I think you are like me and nothing is ever good enough.  That is a huge wow! Congrats! Being lighter than the hubby is great and does wonders for the sex life! wink wink!
