I just had to share, I went shopping with my best friend today at the outlet malls. Agenst my best judgement I tryed on a pair of jeans. I was able to pull up and zip compleatly a pair size 28 jeans!!! An d I didnt even have to wiggle and pull and roll on the floor. I havent been able to that in over 6 years. In other news I am offically down 80lbs! thats 60 pre op and 20 post op. (not including water weight) Well I hope you all have an awesome day I know I did!

It's a great feeling, isn't it? I just got down into 28-size pants myself. I had a stack of them from immediately after my salad days (when I was regaining from my 140 pound weight loss in 2000-2002). I can't wait to get down to 26, i think I have even more in that size.

Good luck!

Melissa, that is great!   I've been digging out some clothes I haven't worn in three years when I was on MediFast for the millionth time.

YES!!! Celebrate!!!

Way to rock the program, sugar!

I remember the sense of disbelief and wonder when I was able to slip into size 20 jeans and do the same thing--zip them up without pain! And the feeling just gets better and better. Keep up the awesome work!!

Wow!  That's so exciting.  I'm happy for you and can't wait until I can say the same thing.

Oh now, that would be nice. I'm still in the dreaded elastic waist stretch pant phase. I could go for a little less jiggly fat up front. Congratulations on the weight loss and the exciting NSV.

CONGRATULATIONS on no wiggle. This is wonderful news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know you can not wait to see size 26 or even 24. You will see those numbers in no time. It almost seems like everything is full speed with this surgery. One minute you're down 1lb and the next minute you're down 10lbs. It's  a WILD ride for sure!

Thanks everyone, I know I have so much to look forward too in the comming days. The weight is seemingly melting off, Thank GOD!!! For once I dont have to be packing it on. In other news, I was able to wear my husbands work jacket zipped up and everything on saturday. I was so excited, Its the only thing of his I can wear right now, and its three sizes too big for him, but that just means I need to steal it and have him get another one right?? Besides in 6 months or so ill need a smaller sized one too... lol.

That's soooooooo great!!!!

I think I'm about to squeeze into my first pair of 24's, they will be stretch jeans for sure lol I know what you mean, I haven't been able to wear jeans since before I was pregnant with my son and he is now 20!!!

When I was able to put on my first pair of zip up button non stretchy pants, size 38, I just cried. Now my 26's are loose and i'm heading for 24!

I can now buy AND WEAR clothes from macy's, i'm beyond estatic!

Congratulations!!!!

Thanks Tabbyfree for the reply, I must say you look way too young to have a 20 year old son. By the looks of your ticker you have come such a long way on your journey and are doing AWESOME! Congrats on your weight loss too!
