I was a 44, now in a 38 and they are getting looser every week. I was in a 2 x shirt and some of them were tight and now I am in xl and they are getting loose too. I am a pack rat and had my clothes from when I was smaller packed away. It feels so good to see clothes I had not worn in 10-15 years and then putting them on and they feel great. I am down 68 lbs, sleeved 5-13.

From a 64 to a 48 in 6 months, can't wait till I can shop in a real clothing store again. Also a 2x down from a 6x shirt wise and on the last notch of my second belt in that time.

Was a 56 at my peak in 1999. Was a 48ish when I was cut. Down to a 38 easy and might be able to get into a 36 now at goal - 20.

Started at a 56 in May when I had the surgery this year and down to a 40 now after six months. Loss seems to be slowing down so may be at that size for a while. Jackets have gone from 3XL to L as well..

Just had my surgery on Wednesday (11/20/13) and wanted to know what would be good for my 'meals' while on the liquid phase of the post op diet.. any suggestions??? I know I need Water and Protein Shakes but what can I 'eat'?? And is it more important that I try to get in the water and protien shakes down instead of trying to eat?

Is it crazy that I literally had one small spoon full of Jello and felt like I just ate at a buffet...???

I've only lost about 35 pounds in 2 months but I'm down 3 pants size! I'm pleased with the smaller size. My doctor is thrilled . She said I'm losing far but gaining muscle.

Going from a 44 to 38 waist size sounds unbelievable and so fantastic. Congratulations. I have my surgery next month (Dec 14th) so I'm hoping that in the next few months I'll be receiving some of the perks you talk about. Focusing on the things I can DO was much more valuable than the things I CAN'T DO (YET!!!) once again congrats on your success.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
