I got the board shorts at Target. The only ones that I considered "long enough" where in the Plus size but the 16's worked after i put a drawstring in the waist.

Hey, there.  Your a little further out than me, but not too much.  I weighed alot more than you to start so that will make a difference.  I have lost a total of 100 pounds and have been at a stall for a while now.  went from a TIGHT 30-32 to a 16-18...

Hey everyone. glad to hear all the updates. I went and saw my surgeon May 23rd and by his scale I have lost 82 pounds. I'm so happy and I feel great. He says I'm right where I should be. I only have about 25 more pounds until I hit goal. The loss has really slowed down, but I'm still doing what I should be, except exercising. I had to stop exercising because I pulled a muscle in my thigh.  :(   But other than that I'm okay. I'm still waiting for my mind to catch up with my body. LOL I still see myself as big. I've gone from a size 26/28 to a 10, but my mind makes me shy away from looking in mirrors. Every now and again I'll catch a glimpse of myself at a store and I think it's someone else. LOL I can't believe how much my taste buds have changed. I tried to have some chocolate the other day (I had it planned into a meal) and I had to spit it out. I don't like the taste anymore. Same thing with all sweets and even soda. I couldn't live without that stuff pre-op. I hate seafood ... but for some reason lately I've been craving crab legs. I guess I will have to atleast try them now to see if I like them. The extra skin is definitely something that brings me down though. I see all these cute shirts that I could finally fit into, but can't wear because they show too much of my arms. My legs luckily aren't too bad, but belly and arms are a big problem right now. But it's all a part of the process. I love all the energy I have now. and I'm so much healthier.

Keep up the good work everyone.

I lost 35 lbs before surgery...  so i had surgery at 258... maybe that's the difference in it.  i count this for when i started this process (my 3 month waiting period for insurance)...
