Since surgery on July 17th I've went from a Big and Tall men's 48 inch waist to a regular 40 inch waist.

From Levi's 559's (relaxed straight) to 505's (regular straight). Which is nice not only because it's a smaller, slimmer size, but also because big and tall clothes cost more than regular clothes.

I'm 6 weeks out and I notice a huge difference in my work scrubs. pre op I was in a snug 2X and this morning I fit into a lg size!!!!! I was so excited to come to work today!!!! hahahah let's keep up the great work everyone!

That's so exciting! I wear a 2xl in scrubs but recently ordered a size large pre op in anticipation that they will fit in a few months. I figure even if my body levels out at a medium then at least my scrubs will be a little loose..just how I like them

From a 16 to a 10 or 8 in jeans. XL or 1x to a M or L in tops! (surgery July 18)

Shoes..8.5 to 7!

Pants 34 to a 24

Shirt 5x to a 2x

I did!! So very exciting. I am 5'6". I started out at 221 and as of this morning I am 193. I am eating well and never feel deprived. I am riding my bike at least 2-5 miles a day and walking 3-4 days per week. Nothing really strenuous or extra special as far as exercise. I had a small two week stall about two weeks ago. Everything is going good. You will see the same results. Just realize that everyone does things at their own pace. You will get there!!! Congrats on your choice to better your health.
