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.

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!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
