New clothes again!!
So, I went to try on clothes just to see what size I would be in, hoping to fit into a 22. I picked a pair of stretchy jeans and the 22s fit and were a little big, so I pulled the 20s. They fit better, I couldn't believe it!! I found a skirt that I like that is down to the ankles and has a princess cut to it. I think I can wear it for work because I can squat down and my butt doesn't hang out of it. Anyway, I got the 22 in the skirt, I think it was the only one they had anyway. I found another pair of jeans that I liked, the only pair they had was an 18, so just for kicks, I tried them on too. They went on and buttoned!!! They were very tight and my tummy was hanging over the top of them, but in a couple of weeks they should fit better, so I got those too. Then I got 3 tops, 2 just cotton and one dressier that I liked. They are all 1xs!!! I was in a size 32 or 34 pants and a 4x top before surgery. I can't believe how much I have lost in inches and pounds!! I am wearing the new skirt today b/c I just have a staff meeting at work. I am going to weigh in but it probably won't be accurate b/c the skirt is denim and probably weighs 3 pounds. I will weigh in again tomorrow with different pants on, but I just want an idea.
Woooooooo Hoooooooooo!!!!!
WTG!!! It is so exciting when we get into smaller clothes isn't it?!?!?
I think I am about ready to start trying on a smaller size, but I want to wait just a couple more weeks so that I don't get discouraged if they don't fit.. KWIM???
Well, Congrats and enjoy the new size you will be shrninking into an even smaller size soon.. WTG!!!

Isn't shrinking out of your clothes a wonderful problem to have?? I can't wait to say "I don't have anything that fits me--again!"
