How many pant sizes did you lose in a year?

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??

I had surgery Aug. 19, went from an 18/20 to a 14 and this past week the 14s are getting too loose--I can take off my favorite jeans without unbuttoning/unzipping them. Yay new jeans.

In the first year, started as size 20 or 22 and got to a size 6.

I'm a size 14, originally a size 24. I'm also only at 6 months! My goal is to be a size 12, but I just hit Onederland today and I'm considering pushing for a sz 10. Goal is so close!

I don't know what size I was at a year out, but I went from a 26 to 5/6 in 18 months. You will be swimming in that size 10 dress before you know it!

Thanks to all you ladies I'm inspired and super excited! I guess I didn't realise how quickly the pants size went down!

I went from a size 22/3X to a size 6 pants, 8 or 10 top/dress, medium. I lost 120 pounds since surgery and I'm 5'10".

Sizing is so weird and I don't get hung up on the numbers and just try to find what looks best. It varies a lot by manufacturer. I bought an expensive blouse as an incentive piece of clothing and once it fit I hated how it looked on me, what a waste of money.

I went from a 60" to 42".

More left to loose.

You are all an inspiration ,I'm new here ,banded 24/08,weight is falling off 4 stone 2 pounds off so far

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.

with in the first 6-9 months i went from 20 to a 2 im more of a 6 now, i have huge muscular thighs that dont fit in skinny girl clothes

I've gone from 42" to 38" in 3 months. My 38's are starting to fit a bit loose, so it may be time to go and try on some 36's!!

I went from UK 24 to UK 12 (USA 22 to USA 10). Im having skin surgery in January so may get in a ten (USA 8) then whohooooooo.

I am only 3.5 months out, was a 22 and just ordered size 14 as my 16s are getting loose.
