Wanting hear some awesome success stories and find out if my goal of going from a 22 to a 10 is setting myself up for disappointment. My husband was trying to be sweet and bought me a dress (10) I've been in love with ages specifically to wear on a vacation a year post-op. Anyway enough about me! How many sizes did you loose in a year??

Oh thanks, that was an older one, here is a recent one from last month when I hit my one year anniversary. In the blue I was at nearly my heaviest weight, I had lost a bit prior to surgery. Then on the right was at one year out.

22-10 or 8 depending

I have gone from a 20/22 to a 10/12 in 9 months. I am hoping to get into an 8 before my one year post op. Also went from 2x in stretch pants to a large. If my excess skin on my stomach was removed I could easily do a Medium.

You guys are all so inspiring! Can't wait to be on the loosing bench with you ladies!

This was my experience with surgery. My high weight 254 I went from a 22/24 pants and XX large top.

Goal weight 140 in six months.to a size 3/5 pants and a small to a med top. depending on the designer. I'm now 2 1/2 years out. I maintain my weight in the 130's.

During weight loss I dropped sizes quickly. My husband would have to tell me to get new clothing. I went from a 22/24 to 16 in two months. I can't remember after that how many times changed sizes. But it was many times..lol

I never thought I would be this size even with surgery.

On a side note: I made a video of my loss. I used the photos that my hubby took of me each month to compare my weight loss. Some of the photos make me laugh. I didn't realize my clothing was too large. I needed to change sizes. I had no clue.

You will do great, just keep you eye on the prize, lol!!

I began at a very tight size 24, within a year I was a 00 and have maintained ever since.

The maintenance is the hardest part. Losing is easier, because you have the reward of watching the scale go down, NSV's, smaller clothes and many compliments. You will easily be able to get to size 10!

I'm only 5 weeks out, but including the 2 weeks pre-op, I've gone from tight 22 to 18.

I'm just coming up to 13 months out now and at my biggest I was a tight UK 32-34 I'm now a UK 8-12 depending on style and shop, you can do it, just be sure to be realistic and don't get disheartened enjoy your journey

I went from a tight 20 to a 4. 271 to 135. I am 5'6"

I'm down 3 pants sizes I started at 4x pants and 3x tops and down to 18
