While sitting at my desk this morning... I felt very uncomfortable ~ like my pants and panties were getting all tangled up. I was in such a rush this morning... I just got dressed fast and left for work. When I went to the ladies room, I realized my panties are WAY TOO big!

Silly....but that felt GREAT... I need to go shopping for smaller panties tomorrow!!

I felt the same thing today!

I was excited when I had to do this! Congrats, it's a great accomplishment!

Fitting into smaller clothes- even panties is such a great feeling. Keep up the good work!

That has to make you feel good.

I was at the gym the other day and had to keep pulling my shorts up while running on the treadmill. These same shorts were a bit tight just a few months back.

Good for you! I've been trying to hold off on buying new stuff because I'm trying to save my money for my new goal wardrobe!. I'm trying to wear what I've got for as long as I can so I don't have to buy so many different sizes. I may have to rethink it though. On Friday, my sister took me for a manicure & pedicure for my birthday. She said she was embarrassed because my jeans and top were so big I looked like a bag lady. For some of the cheaper stuff, like panties and jeans, I'm going to take them in until I can't take them in anymore. I don't want to do that to my work clothes because they are more expensive and in excellent condition and I'm going to try to sell them at a yard sale so I don't want to alter the size.

Oh yeah! Saggy bottom. Been there! Isn't it a great feeling? I had baggy bra, too..that was sad!

AquarianCrab, you might also be able to sell them at a consigment shop and get a little more than at a yard sale.

Yep, I got new ones last weekend haha, a Bra too!

I've taken to wearing shorts under my skirts to keep them up! I'm not financially ready for an intermediate wardrobe yet as I am saving for the BIG shopping spree! Woo Hoo!

Great Job everyone! We can do this! (duh--we ARE doing this!)

Congrats. That is one of the joys of this journey. Keep up the good work!

I feel like if I'm not careful, most of my pants will just fall right off my butt, they're so loose! Oh and also, for the intermediate stages, thrift shops and clearance racks!

I love reading post like these!!! Today I'm 2 wks post op and I alrdy had to buy a couple pairs of jeans I can wear to work I was a size 16 now I'm a 13 alrdy! Yay!!!!

I just got new panties in the mail today! This is a BIG NSV for me, since before I went into maintenance mode I just bought plain, cheap ones as I shrank. But now that I'm right where I want to be, I got some really cute ones! Also got two nice new bras, and a bikini that I look dang hot in! I've never been the materialistic or superficial type, but just this once I'm enjoying having some nice (SMALL!) things to wear that I look good in! Yet again my band journey has amazed me...
