so, i've dropped some weight and the people at work are making fun (in a joking way) of how my clothes are looking...

i broke down and bought a few dresses from LB online. i figured i'd order them small and i will shrink into them.

it fits ... in fact, it is roomy.

i went from a 6x :embarassed: to a 3x ... OMG!!!! :confused:

Good job. Isn't it exciting when you go down a size! I went down to a size 22 and I'm very happy. Now I'm looking at 20s. Good luck!

Hi!

My big NSV- I bought a sweater at a normal, everyday store the other day!!! It is a n X-L, but still it felt great. My new jeans are a 16P (plus which is bigger than a regular 16).

So... I am thrilled and motivated to keep it going!!!

That is so awesome that is a huge difference. Congratulations to you!

Would be nice to start a clothing swap. I mean I am already down a size as well. I am going to keep wearing them because I hate to buy clothes when I know they too will have to be replaced!

Yikes, they cost so much but I guess when the grocery bill drops there is room for more shopping. Too bad for me I have a hubby and step child that eat thier body weight daily so it really just means that they eat more of what I would have eaten! So sad!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
