From a 22/24 to size 14 pants and LG/XLG tops. Some of the 14's are getting loose in the legs and butt, but my waist won't fit in 12 unless it is all elastic.
I am down 70 pounds and have been holding in that range for two months. I want to MOVE off that number and soon!!!
My bra size went from 44DD to 40D. Not a huge change........ I have one 38D and it is TIGHT!

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.

Yes, come here for help, go to a support group or two, see the nutritionist too.
Remember, we had our digestive systems fixed, but not our brains! We are still suffering from years of bingeing, overeating, snacking, grazing, emotional eating and now, 8 months out, we can eat more and do we!! This is the working part. Don't waste a lot of time on depression, anger and guilt-- try to research and reach out and work on it. Also, I try to find the lo-cal, lo-sugar snacks for when I just have to eat more!!
Good luck in your journey,

Hi, Velentina. It took me a long time to change clothing sizes. I bet if you went shopping you would find you fit in some smaller things. Also, get two pictures of yourself. One preop and one now and I bet you will see a big difference. I have to do that even at 93 pounds out because my eyes play tricks on me.
Hang in there. You will get there!
