Yeah if I didn't have thighs.....they are what hold up my skirts!
But now all my skirts are even longer.
And I so enjoy my flat tummy even after all I've been through on this journey.

I am almost 5 weeks post LBL.  I was wearing a 12/14. I now am wearing 10.  I do have some swelling still.

 I am 12 days out, so reading all of this is encouraging to me. I'm back into the clothes I wore on the plane but the pants are a medium, not the small I generally wear.  I was in 10 jeans pre-op. I would lovetobe in a ten!

 7 weeks post lbl and I'm down a size and a half (was a 14) but still can't squeeze my body into a 10 comfortably yet.  I'm still fairly swollen and want my inner thighs lifted so my goal is an 8 but we'll see when the time comes. Shirts fit me better but I still have some baggage that will be taken care of when I do arms and boobs in a few months, which means my upper body (boobs to neck) is still too big to go down (L to M) but my tummy already can. I bought one pair of jeans that currently fit but don't want to waste money if I'll be a smaller size soon so I've been do leggings and yoga pants. I'd like to achieve the near-impossible and loose weight over the holidays. That's right pumpkin pie, I'm talking to you!

I was mostly large tops and 9 jeans.  Still stuck in 9 jeans, my hips are just too big.  But now, mostly medium tops.  Dress - medium or 9/10.  Except for the ones that don't do boobs... then I'm looking a large.  I couldn't wear my jeans for 2.5 months, as they were too tight across the LBL.  Stayed in my loose cotton/terry cloth pants.

Hi

I am almost 8 weeks out from extended tt with lipo.  My jeans are down one size from 14 to 12 and my shirts (wonder why?) are down to a large.....

That said I'm still not at goal.  My hubby and I have a bet going starting on 1-1....whomever loses 20 lbs first gets to pick the next vacation spot :)  I have to go for a fill in my band; after my tt I had to have quite a bit of fluid taken out as I was too tight.

Wish me luck!

Yay! That sounds like such a fun thing to do with him and an entertaining way to loose weight. Very creative of you guys. I'm rooting for you. (Where do you want to go WHEN you win?)
