And I will post pictures later today but we did some other things already.
Signing into the surgeon, I weighed 203.
Day of surgery: 199
Today: 176.8
Amount of loss so far: Pre-surgery/4lbs/post surgery/22.2lbs/total/26.2 lbs

But the biggest surprise was my measurments and YES we did measurements pre-surgery.

I have lost a total of 23 &5/16 inches all over. My bra size has gone from a 42DD (pushing a 44) to a 42C.

I LOVE my DS!!!!

My old one was crawling up my back and making me nuts so I went and measured myself and found a site online to see if I had changed much. I had, so I went today and got ONE new bra to hold me over to the the NEXT downsize (and yes, I know one is coming).

When I was in my very late 20's I was a size 7 and weighed 145, my bra size was a 34B so I know I am not stopping at a 40C.

If you get your measurements, you can go here and figure it out:

That's how I figured mine out.
