I am 4 weeks post op. Actually going for first fill today... hopefully. I lost 15 pounds during the liquid diet and then just maintained. Normally, I go down a size with a 20 pound weight loss (obviously I've done this several times!..lol) but yesterday I noticied my shorts were loose. Yep, went down a size. Then today the same thing happened. I tried on an even smaller size and although they are a little tight they fit! How can that be? I haven't lost anymore weight. And they are all Lane Bryant as I know some brands runs larger, ect. No complaining but definitely strange!

Congrats! This is why I try not to obsess with my scale.

Are you exercising now? Did you exercise in the past? That can affect the sculpting of the body. By this I mean you could be adding muscle.

aerobic exercise does get rid of the visceral fat in the belly, so if you've been doing that, then it's possible. Whatever it is, I'd just keep on doing it

I did the same thing at first. I, too, usually lose a size for every 20 lbs. However, those first few weeks...were just like you described. I'm at 43lbs now and its evened back out to the 20lb-rule. LOL. I'm down two sizes since I started pre-op diet on Jan 11. Blessings to you!

congrats!!!! you must be losing inches and pounds .... BONUS!

your losing inches. i have only lost around 42 pounds and my clothes went from 18-20 to 12-14's. i just try not to obessess about the scale cuz it gets me depressed and i'm 11 months out.
