I'm working in a bathing suit boutique and the story only has up to size 16. I told my two coworkers about my surgery and they were really interested in it. They were so surprised when I showed them my license from before my surgery. I told them I was a size 14 and they were so surprised. They said I don't look like I'm bigger than a size 10. A customer came in who was a size 14 and they said I was a lot smaller than her. I was so happily surprised!!

You might be smaller then a 14, have your tried 12 or 10?  

People tell me all the time, "you don't look like you weigh 180" or whatever I weigh at the time.  It is funny how our DL has now turned into a lie detector...LOL.  Whenever people don't believe me I bust out the DL or I pull up my Facebook on my phone and show them the proof.

Congrats on the fantastic compliments. I would say try a smalled size "just to see". You might be pleasantly surprised at fitting into a smaller size
