That whould be great... and soooo appreciated. I went to Catherines today and hit the Clearance rack. Got a pair of jeans for a decent price. The ones that are too big for me are a 9 Red. These are actually a 7 Blue (if you know anything at all about the crazy numbering system at Catherines/Lane Bryant) And adding to that.... they are actually a petite. I have NEVER worn a petite before. I think my legs have gotten shorter!!!! :smile2: The chart there said a 7 is comparable to a 24. I didn't believe that. I still can't squeeze my big belly into a 26, let alone a 24!!!! I asked the girl at the store and she said that chart is off. (I would say wayyyyy off).

Still dreaming of the day I can get into a "real" size 7!!!

:thumbup:

I can't figure those sizes out either! I got a pair of the Lane Bryant Right Fit Jeans - size 3! BUT now they are too big! I'm trying to find the receipt so that I can return them! I would be happy to get a size two. I really liked the way my butt looked! Ha! 90 days til my surgery! Yippie!

Wow.... a size 2. Great for you. Once you have your surgery shopping at LB will be a thing in the past for you :sneaky: I know you are excited for it..... heck, I am excited for your surgery. Can't wait to see how absolutely fab-u-lous you look :sad:

I don't shop at Lane Bryant anymore, but when I did I HATED their "right size" campain. They wanted to measure me everytime I went to try to find jeans, but I never could find any that fit well after they did that.

Lucky you!!

but when I did I HATED their "right size" campain. They wanted to measure me everytime I went to try to find jeans, but I never could find any that fit well after they did that.

And their sizes are so freakin weird. A blue 7 fit me so much better than a yellow 8 (which were quite tight). :sneaky: Go figure.....

The blue is what I got too, BUT I was thinking a red might be better for me since I have bigger hips and thighs. It's the upside down triangle or is that the right side down triangle. I don't know! I just know I have big thighs! I went yesterday to exchange my 3's for a 2 or 1 and they have that style on sale for $19.99 now. I found some cute blouses and exercise pants for $16.00. I couldn't find my receipt so I had to do an exchange! If I had taken the refund it would have been half of what I originally paid! I hestitated buying jeans since I am not sure what size I'll be after December. BUT I also didn't want to get cheated! IF they don't fit, I'll just take them back again!

I am currently looking for a long nightie - mumu type thing to take to Mexico with me for recovery time. Not that I want to look hideous, but I will need something modest and fairly decent to wear in the hotel room and to venture out for Breakfast in the lobby. Yuck! I'm going to be scary! I am pleased, however, that I'll be able to shower by day 3. I'm going to stay in the surgicenter for 3 days. I'm getting excited and scared at the same time!

Dee----

You'll get a kick out of this. I was reading posts earlier and Kayleigh pointed to your picture and said "that's you, right?" She was so suprised when I told her it was "Miss Dee" and not me.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
