I started at size 26 or 28 in pants and 2X (which were getting tight) in tops. I am currently a size 20 or 22 in pants and between an XL and 1X ( 1X is too big, but XL is still a bit snug) in tops. My surgery was onFebruary 16th, so I am almost at two months.

This is funny because after a size 14 pants got too tight, my pants size became LEGGINGS ????

Decided to have the surgery just when I realized I would have to go up to a 16, and hopefully never going back there again!!

Started at 18 bottoms and now wearing an 8-10. Tops xxl and now a large. One of my goals was to be able to wear a large at almost any store and I'm pretty much there. Looking to go smaller but that was just one of my goals.

I started off at a pants size of 50/52 and now wear a size 40/42.

My shirt size went from 3XL to XL.

I can buy clothes at any clothing store now and now can wear pants with a designer label over one back pocket if I choose (I don't, designer labels aren't important to me) instead of labels that say "Pass" and "Don't Pass" over the back pockets. :).

      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!!
