I was cleaning out my closet yet again. Somehow, I stumbled across this pair of my old work slacks. I thought I had gotten rid of all my pre-op clothes, and needed to weed out the 10s and 12s.

To my surprise, I found these and thought I would share. I was trying to organize the shelf in my closet and these were tucked back behind a box.

My previous size 24W pants the standard black slacks.

Current size 4/6 depending on brand and cut of jeans. In most dress slacks, I'm a solid 5 for juniors, and 6 for misses. Sizing these days is so off, and there is no standard. But, I love being below a 10 these days.

" Look ma, I have ribs" LOL:001_tongue:

Yeppers, I am literally half the size I used to be. Those are a pair of slacks from a store called Cato. Size 24W, I am standing in one leg, both of my legs are in one pant leg of those pants.

My kiddo couldn't quit laughing when he took the pic cause he said that he couldn't remember me that big.

That's why the pic is a bit blurry, he was moving a little when he snapped the pic LOL LOL.

What do I do to maintain? OMG...did I really just ask that!? PS just updated my ticker...still can't believe I passed my goal.

Tiffykins, that's awesome. When I was 19 years old I lost 75 lbs in a year and I felt like a different person. Looking at you in that picture reminded me of that feeling.

"Eat it all up" girlie you deserve it! :thumbup: I'm so happy for you! Who needs food anyway! hahaha...just kidding!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
