I have been going through clothes for the last 2 days... I went from 26/28 to 20/22. It wont be long and I will be out of 22's!!! I have so much clothes that I am taking to the resale shop that way, I am not really spending my own $ on clothes. I can just take them back when I get too small for them :D I put on a pair of jeans yesterday that have't fit right since about 2004! I was like OMG!! It really feels good when I am able to put something on that fits... I still haven't had alot of ppl say anything, but it might be because they dont know what to say?? Or they dont want to offend.. I am not sure. I do know my neighbor said yesterday wow, how much weight have you lost? I told her 47lbs, as of yesterday it was 47! Also, I asked her "Can you tell?" She said, Yes, especially in your face. It made me feel good. I guess most ppl didnt see just how big my butt and stomach were since I always wore baggy clothes to hide it. In 2 months, exactly I have lost 50lbs!! Are you serious? I have had some bad nausea and still do, but it has all been worth it! 
   I talked to Margie yest., and she said I will get my 1st B12 shot next week, I would like to get started on some prenatal vitamins. I am going to see if I can get the kind Angy is on so I can have extra iron and a stool softner :). I hope everyone has a blessed day!!

WOO HOO Lori!!!  That is awesome!  People probably just don't know what to say & are affraid of saying something offensive.  I always wore baggy clothes too.  I havent wore a real pair of jeans in years & I can't wait for that or to wear a sleeveless shirt (that is if my arms don't look too bad).  50 lbs in 2 months!!!  Did you ever think you would do that?  I have lost 50 something lbs, but its been since April, since the seminar.  You are doing sooo good & I am so proud of you.   I love the prenatal Vits, they are prescription so insurance pays for them, plus the iron & stool softener, that's 2 other pills that I don't have to buy, plus it's only 1x a day.  I hope he'll prescribe them for you.   Congratulations on your progress, you're doing so GREAT!!!   (((HUGS))) Angy

Congrats, I know how you feel.  I used to wear a size 26/28 even was able to wear a 30 and after 8 months and down 154 pounds I can get into a size 16 button up Old Navy low riders I was so shocked.  It is an amazing journey, I love how my clothes out grow me now (at least I'm not out growing them like before wls).  I know I had complications at first and was sick for a few months even had regrets but now I know it was all worth it.  I was excited to get out of the 300's then the 200's (that seemed like forever to get out of 200's) now I'm at 197 so I'm a happy camper!  I have 62 pounds until goal.

You go girl!!!!  That's so awesome!!  It feels good to feel good doesn't it?  Girl keep tryin on those old clothes because if you wait too long you won't get to wear them---been there done that.  I tried on a pair of jeans I hadn't worn in 7 years and they were too big---I wore them for about 2 weeks then they were literally falling off me so I had to stop.  So get out all those old clothes and try them on.  Keep up the good work woman.
