Where have you been??? I still wear 26 jeans but I have managed to... under? grow some of them and fit into 24s in certain styles. If they are stretchy pants I can wear as small as a 22. Shirts I'm easily wearing 22/24 but also 18/20s pretty easily in a lot of them. Funny, I was holding them up yesterday and thinking "these look big..." when I'd hold them up before and think "omg, they'll never fit." When I hold up the bigger sizes  I think "wow I used to fit that?" and I remember thinking that THOSE would be too small. Crazy.

I've lost 84 pounds post op and 94 total. I'm bummed because I lost the whole last week due to a severe infection I had to go to get fluids and antibiotics through an IV everyday and I was losing VERY quickly right before that. Sheesh! I think I'll lose right about 100 post op at the 6 month mark. :) 

These clothes are getting expensive.

Did you see my before and after pics??? I was surprised you didn't come out of the woodwork on those!

And I haven't looked at the pics but damnnnn you're getting small!!!

Not sure if you read my blog entry, but I had emergency surgery last month (not realated to WLS). I'm doing all I can to breathe. I need to see these photos! Show me. Email me - candytx at gmail dot com or something. LOL.

And yeah, my top is smaller too. I'm in 14/16 tops (somehow skipped 18/20 I guess)

Hang on, sister... you gotta WILD ride.

Oh no :( I'm sorry to hear that. I forgot all about the blog! 

I have to wait till I get home. Oh, they are on my profile though...

Omg, so I have 3 pounds left until my 100 pound total loss and 13 pounds left until my 100 pound post op loss and i'm just about at 5 months out! Crazy huh?? I'm in love with myself today
