What's your favorite change since the surgery?

I cannot believe it but it seems my thighs are no longer touching and rubbing together when I walk. I just started subtly noticing it this week. I'm so thrilled that I don't have to suffer through another summer with chub rub. I still have a ways to go but this and not sweating as much anymore are my favorite changes so far. Looking forward to more great changes as the weight continues to come off.

I just gave my girlfriend 30 pairs of big girl jeans!!! I have lost 30 lbs and went from a size 18-20 to a 14-16!!! In just 5 weeks! (7 if you count the preop diet)

My favorite NSV is probably that I can go shopping in 'normal' stores and not have to worry about the clothes not fitting, or be exhausted to try clothes on in the fitting room, I also love when I try something on and it's too big. I like having the problem taht all of the little sizes are sold out in a atyle and all they have are sizes that are too big left instead of the opposite problem. I've always been a clothes whore...now it's twice as bad, but my budget is 4 times as big, because I'm not spending the money on food and high end clothes, and smaller clothes are about half the price. P.S. I also LOVE that my thighs no longer rub!!!

I would say that my favorite NSV so far is that I went from a size 20W to a 14 in 5.5 weeks! A whole 40 pounds gone. Oh, also that I can shop in my closet now for clothes I haven't worn in AGES because I was too big to fit into any of them. It's exciting!
