When do you start dropping sizes?

I'm officially two weeks post-op today and have lost 56 pounds with pre and post op combined. My frustration is I haven't dropped a clothing size yet. Very upsetting :'( it really puts a negative spin on things.

It took me 2 1/2 months and almost 60lbs to go down a size (I started stuffed into a 20)- in the next 42lbs and 7ish months- I have gone down 6 sizes. I've gone from a 2x top and 20/22 bottoms to 6/8 bottoms and a small or medium top. I posted in another thread earlier that I volunteer a lot at my girl's school- a lot of people haven't seen me since may. I have lost maybe 20lbs since may, but EVERYONE has commented on my weightloss- it's as if the other 80lbs never existed! It's crazy to realize that a 5lb loss now brings out bigger clothing and outside "audience" reactions than before! I'm also 4'11- so 5lbs on me is a little different than 5lbs on someone who is 6' or even 5'6!
