I'm in size 16 now but the butt is baggy. The rest of me isn't small enough to fit into a smaller size.

I'm hoping this is just temporary and the waist area will start to follow because I really don't want to have to be a baggy butt forever!

Lol it will adjust I promise. I was the same way.

If the pants can't fit me the way I like... I'll try until I find a brand that flatters me to my liking. Visceral fat sheds faster than subcutaneous fat stores, so it'll even out eventually.

I just haven't been wearing pants. I stick to jersey skirts and dresses over leggings. I can't wait to get back into pants, but my legs haven't caught up to my waist.

Good to know this won't last forever!

I just don't like skirts yet. I still feel like my calves are huge and pasty. But for some reason I feel ok in capris.

I've ALWAYS had a big butt...even when I was a fit ski instructor and ran cross country. I had to buy jeans to fit my butt and thighs and the waist was always too big and had to cinch it up with a belt. With this surgery I have lost weight in places I normal never have and I completely lost my butt. Now my pant waist fits pretty good and my butt is loose and saggy. Oh yeah, and the nice, voluptuous DD boobs I've had my whole life ( even before I was obese) are sad, limp, barely B cups. My overall body shape has totally changed, but I guess I'll take it :)

I have huge calves as well (I think they'll always be a bit disproportionally large), and so the pants that are in style now (so straight leg or skinny) simply don't fit me. By the time I find something that fits over my calves, the waist is like on clown pants. Hence I stick to leggings under skirts. I actually think it's more flattering that poorly fitting pants, but that's me.

I love Levi Leggings, so stretchy and give so much.

      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! 😞
