Michelle,
Way to go. I was given some clothes about 2 weeks ago that were 24's and they are falling off from me. I am now in a 20/22 pants and 2 x shirt and the 22's are a little baggy but I don't need a belt yet. Before surgery I was a 32 pants and a 5 x shirt. I am so totally amazed at how quick this is working. Keep up the great work.

Congratulations! I know it feels weird to buy SMALLER sizes - but its awesome. 
It seems like alot of you are losing more sizes than I have. I started in a 28 and just started wearing a size 22. I have lost almost 80 pounds though, but I was really fat in my back and lost a whole lot there. I swear I lost atleast 10 pounds of my boobs 
LOL... Anyway, keep up the good work!

I had a comparable experiance. Shortly post-op I started wearing suspenders to keep my pants up. Well, I got to the stage where I was wearing "Clown Pants". Sooooo, I finally broke down and went to Wallmart to buy pants.
Well, I started at a 56" waist... Now I'm wearing a 48" and it's starting to get loose. I have a pars of 46" jeans that are next in line. I figure less than a month. WOO HOO!!!

That is SO awesome! YOU GO GIRL! I'm totally lost in a clothing store.... my mind keeps making me wonder into the "Large size" clothes, and then when I get there I think... wait a minute... I'm not supposed to be here anymore.
But it still feels strange to me going over to the "skinny" section LOL. I still mentally feel like I don't belong there LOL.
