46 pounds lost, and wearing the same clothes?!?



Recommended Posts

Got a sale pair of pants at lane Bryant today. I am down to an 18! Have not been this in 15 years. I was a 24-26. Not buying alot of clothes have 60 more pounds to go. But I am happy 65 lbs off!

Yep, I'm 5 pounds shy of a 100 pound loss & I'm still wearing pre-surgery clothes. They are much looser now and before surgery I really truly probably needed to go up a size. I can fit in smaller sizes too but still wear my old clothes.

No one notices because you need to go buy new smaller clothes! ;-) Part of the problem is we have stretched our clothes way out. When we wash them they shrink, so they are tight when we put them on. However a few minutes after putting them on they loosen up. Because they were snug when we first put them on we assume we haven't lost.

Personally I can wear my 20's but they look like clown pants by the end of the day. I need to retire them. I can also wear all 18's and a few 16's. the 14's make it to the top of my thighs. (Try them on every Sunday. One of these days they will go all the way up).

Go shopping! Even if you don't buy anything, go play!

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

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
