Anything in regular sizes would be groovy. Just shopping in regular stores is my goal... once I get there, I'll reset expectations. I can just imagine how much fun that will be! My credit card will be smokin.

Right now, I am in a 28 and sometimes 30 in shirts. I would be beyond thrilled to fit into a size 10. I am 5'4". Goodness, I can't wait to be banded at the end of this month.

For the past few years, I was around 16. Right now I'm wearing a size 20 -- which I HATE of course. I'd do a jig naked in the streets of NYC if I could get down to a 12. Haven't seen a 12 in about 7 years. I'm 5'8 with a medium to large build.

I would love anything 14 or down. I topped out at 22/3X shirts and I'm an 18/1X shirt now. I haven't been below 14 since college..............I am only 5'3"

I started at a 26/28 and would love to see size 10. I just can't imagine that though! I haven't seen size 10 since kindergarten! :) I am currently in 22 jeans but still 24-26 tops. It seems like I'm losing faster from my waist down that in my top part.

Has anyone ever had the idea of having a clothes swap, etc.? So many of us are at different stages and since we won't stay there long, wouldn't it be nice if we could all swap around clothes and save us tons of money on "pass-thru" sizes??:wave:

A few ladies in Mesquite, Texas had a clothing swap, Keri aka Banded for life held it at her house and we all swapped clothes and chatted. It was nice. I dont know what state everyone reside in but maybe you could get one started in your area.
