I went to my check up today and I've lost 42lbs. My starting weight was 242 and I'm down to 200lbs. My biggest problem is buy some new clothes. I hate to spend the money, because I'm dropping so fast.

I hated buying cloths too. But I did buy my first pair of Levi's at 2 months just because. Now they are way too big and I was spending a lot of time pulling them up. LOL Still am leary to buy new cloths because I need to loose 25 lbs. ;)

I hear you sister! I'm at my 7wk post-op point. I've lost 39lbs (well it is actually 41 on my home scale, but I'm officially going by my gym scale). I've got the clothes issue also. I just hate to spend $ on clothing if I'm only going to wear it for a month or less - as I expect to continue to drop sizes. But, I'm actually thrilled to have the problem. Let Ross, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, and Old Navy be your friends!

Keep up the good work -You loser!!!!!! You can call me a loser any time!

I have a small stash of clothes that range from my current (22) down to a 16. I think I will fill in with some clothes from the new to you shop until I get closer to a goal...note if I could just decide in a goal lol. Can't wait to be on the losers bench with all you fine people

Well done is 42 lbs since surgery , I lost 42lbs in total 17lbs was from pre op , I am 5 weeks out x

You go girl! I think I'm 8 weeks out and down 42lbs as well. I have lots of clothes to shrink back into so hopefully I can avoid shopping for a while. I think I'm good through size 14 although I may need some tops. My body is so different now because I've had a baby so things fit very different than they did on the way up. I'm thicker in the area between my hips and bellybutton line.
