hi friends! just wo...

I am wearing 8's in jeans now..they are a little snug, but holds the tummy in. I was wearing a tight 20 before the surgery. It's been an amazing journey so far..

Wow, everyone's made FANTASTIC progress. I won't be able to believe it when I'm finally down to anything under a 20... 22 is a little snug on me still but 24 is a little loose... I'm not complaining though because I started around a 34/36. It's funny, 22s (even though some of you started in them...) look teeny to me when I go to try them on and am amazed when they zip up! But I'm sure you all know the feeling

Great post. I've gone from a tight 22-24 (funny - no one was in a loose before size) to Med-Large on top and an 8 on the bottom. I find that in these "normal" sizes that the bottom size changes about every 10 lbs. My shoe size was 6 1/2-7 wide to a 5 1/2-6 regular. My ring sizes have really dropped alsob but for now just use Ring Snuggies from Walmart til I get closer to goal. Good going everyone. Corrine

Well now, I started in a 26 & 3XL, now....12 & L! I am down 101lbs and am 17lbs from my goal. I must admit I need to buy clothes along with the kids for school. This is sooo much fun! Happy losing, Brooke

I think we are all doing (& LOOKING) fantastic! Sherry

32/34 pants and 5x shirt, now 22/20 jeans and 2x tops my goal is to be a 14

Started out at 24-26 pants and 22-24 top, bra size was 44DD. Now I am a size 12 pants, L/XL on top and a bra size of 36DD (snug). When I go clothes shopping, I find I gravitate toward the bigger sizes, 20's without even consciously thinking about it. My body has lost faster than my head! 287/164/140's

Hi, I went from a size 18-22 to a 6-10 bottoms and sm - large tops, depending on the styles and stores. If I wear Juniors tops its still XL as they are made very skimpy, and unfortunately this extra skin around my middle tends to "pop out" when wearing tight things and I end up looking like the penquin from Batman!!! Thanks for sharing Dee. Regards Joanne

I just had to say something about your surgery day weight. 315! As you know that was the weight I was when I flat out refused to get on a scale again. I am sure I went over that. The 315 just stays in my head. Maybe we should play those numbers. ha hah haaaaa ok I'll stop I am 5' 6 1/2" I am still top heavy and I see a lot of us are.
