okay oldtimers - tell me this happened to you too! please?
okay, this is freakin me out, and anyone who knows me, knows it's ticking me off!
I am changing out my clothes and putting the very summery stuff in the back of the closet and putting the more fall stuff in front. I want to know what I got rid of last fall and what I might need. I did find that I didn't have any black slacks. That was weird. Okay, I digress.
ANYWAY, I am trying on my only 3 pair of dress slacks and they were a big loose and baggy last time I wore them. Now I weigh the SAME, within 3 pounds of what I did the last time I wore them, BUT they are like SNUG. All of them. I have the tummy panty lines and bulges in the legs. What the heck happened. Have I shifted down like a sack of rocks? Why is it if I weigh the same I seriously could go UP a size??? You know that I am size obsessed like I am the scale.
If you made it this far - have any of you experienced this? Or is it my age? Yeah, I'm over the hill, but geez, this is just too weird.
I am going to have to get me some slacks that I feel comfortable in or try to lose more weight - don't know that it's possible since I have been in this range for almost 18 months.
what's up with this?

RNY revision from lapband 7/30/07...TT/BL 10/9/08 and at GOAL
aww thanks. I know I can still wear them. But I am so obsessed with anything pulling or showing all my skin bulges. I have done the spanx thingy, but it takes the leg fat/skin and pulls it up into my tummy! lol
Such a mess I am.
Can't wait for the real hugs and I will be fine with the cyber hugs for now.
And yes, I am going to double up on the staying on track for the next 12 days. I am so tired of deciding what to eat, I am tempted to go get my Mootopia and my protein and just do shakes for a few days.

very normal, bodies change, if you were working out more last year then you are now, you could have shifted some muscle tone for some fat, or again it could be that your body has changed.
I also noticed that a few lbs (even 5 or 6) on my 6'1'' frame make a HUGE difference in how cloths fit. So while you might say "it's only 3 lbs", it could be that 3 lbs just ends up all in your stomach area.

Becky, I've gained some so yeah my clothes are tighter. BUT even before the 12 lb regain I'd noticed my body shape changing and things fitting differently.
Not sure why but I've seen others say the same thing.
