I never thought I'd have this problem

Even though I am short, pre-surgery I've always worn a women's xl shirt and dresses. I am going on vacation and ordered some cute dresses and skirts from Athleta in XS and I had to send 2 dresses and a skirt back because they were too big. I guess that would be a NSV :) I am now washing so many of my clothes in hot Water just to get them smaller. Even jeans that I bought a month ago size 26.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend-

Congrats!!! You go girl!!!

Awesome! I hope to have that problem one day :)

I kinds have the same issue. I'm under growing my clothes as fast as I can dig them out. I have an annual event every summer that I would typically buy new clothes for. I would usually start about now buying outfits, getting shoes and accessories, etc.... I can't do that this year.

I guess it's a good thing. :unsure:

So, at what point post-op did you notice the biggest drop in sizes?

Almost immediately. I didn't have a pre-op diet but did lose a lot within those first 2 weeks post op. I was down 26 lbs at my 2 week check up, then down another 6, then down another 15. At that point clothes started hanging off me and I had to go looking for some of the things that were starting to fit me a little snug.
