Recommended Posts

To those wondering "will this happen to me" ...

Yes. I was anxious and scare before surgery. Today I tried on size 10 jeans. I won't stop until size 5 jeans fit me. That is how I look hot.

I know, I know...shallow and superficial...but let me enjoy my moment. Let me associate the word "hot" next to my name. I need this.

Wow! You've given me hope. I started in 18 jeans too but I'm only 1 week post op. I bet you look hot in size 10 let alone 5! Congratulations!

I started in a size 18 jean too and I am 2 months post-op and I have lost 31 pounds but I am a size 14. I have hit a stall and have only lost 4 pounds this month. Very aggravated but I am exercising and seem to be losing inches. I am a person that does not like my clothes to touch or pinch me so I may be wearing my clothes a bit big. LOL

Not shallow and superficial at all... When you don't know what it feels like for so much of your life, it will just feel incredible to be happy when you can look in the mirror and smile. My surgery should happen in September or October and I get waves of excitement to think that things could change so much in several month's time. I plan on buying a full length mirror... Maybe two, haha!

I'm so scared that this will fail like all my other attempts. I'm so happy for you. Did you feel like I do?

It is so strange how sizes run. I have lost 75 pounds, but have only gone fom a 26 to a 24. (And some of the 26s still fit, and some of the 24s are still too small. One pair of 22 jeans fit.)

You'd think with that much weight loss, there would be a bigger change in sizes. I dream of the days when an 18 will fit!

I started in an 18 as well and it took me 7 months to get into a size 10 and Im quite active, eat very strict but you did it in a little over 2 months? Mmm, you must share your secret.

I'm 45 years old. Eating about 600 to 700 calories a day, on a good day. Mostly Protein. Some day have been bad.

Don't get discouraged. Jeans sizes are weird. I have every size from 5 to 18 in my closet. The size 10 I put on has stretchy material. I tried on non-strech, the 10 didn't fit, the 12 did. I guess it depends on the make of the jeans.

My dress size is large now. 14. The 12s are still too tight on my back. I have wide back and small hips. When I was size 5 in high school they called me "surfing board".

Right now I have this favorite dress made out of jean material. The cut makes me have curves. I never, EVA had curves in my life. So I'm planing on wearing the dress every day from now on LOL

I think it's body type and sizing on different brands of jeans...

At least that's what I tell myself to feel better after reading these kinds of stories :D

I started at 275, size 22 eight months ago. For the most part I am very strict with my diet. I am down 97 lbs and 10s fit well. Maybe even loose. I went from 3xl scrubs to larges, and those are even huge. Good luck, and know that you can do this!

Well regardless of how long it took me to get into my size 10 skinny jeans, Im a happy camper and very happy for you! I share in your excitement! I love that I can shop in the junior section and grab a medium top and a 10 in pants as a norm. Then depending on the brand, I may have to go up. Only one time did I have to try a small on. I thought I was going to faint lol.

Bunny,

I have to agree with you on that!!

I just came home and took off my jeans size 10 with no stretch, it took me awhile to get here but it feels good. And juniors?? Hehehe..

I took my daughter shopping at Tillys last week and saw a sweater I liked, and all of a sudden it dawned on me, OMG! I can totally pick that up and try it on! I did, and I bought that sucker :P

      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?
