How many pants sizes did you go down after TT?

Hello!

After weeks of swelling... how many pants sizes did you go down after TT? Curious as I'm scheduled for TT w/lipo in Dec.

Thanks in advance for responses.

Thanks, Shalee! Thats what I am hoping for but it sounds like a lot of people didnt really lose weight or a size! I was hoping to get to ten pounds from goal and then kind of get there with the surgery! Are you happy with the result?

I lost 8 pounds the first month after my TT. Unfortunately, I had to have an unfill 2 weeks before my surgery, due to being OVER filled a month earlier, and now I've gained back 7 of those 8 pounds.

My PS told me I would not be hungry for the first couple of weeks and he was right. So, my advice would be at your "sweet spot" or close to it at surgery time, and use the lack of hunger to your advantage!

Thanks for the advise. Initially I thought I'd need to get an unfill prior to surgery; my LAP-BAND® doc said no, it's not necessary - this was music to my ears especially now that I'm at a perfect place with my fill.
