Took a chance

Our company admin came around this morning asking our sizes for the company tee-shirt she's ordering. I said I wanted an XL. She asked me if I was sure because the are kinda form fitted.

I stuck with an XL, I'm having gastric sleeve surgery 5/2. I hope the next time they see me I'm an XL!

You might have asked for a large. Once the weight loss starts it should be pretty rapid.

That was kinda rude to ask "are you sure" =/

Not sure how soon you need to wear the shirt, but you'll drop a t-shirt size in about 4 weeks after surgery. Even if it is a little snug after that, it will just show off your curves! You'll do great!

And in 6 months, you'll need to use it as a night shirt!

I found out that they want all of us at the company to wear the tee-shirt at a coworker's retirement party on May 24th :mellow: How much weight do you lose in the first 3 weeks?

I took a peek at your profile. I honestly think you'll be fine (depending on body shape).

I'm pear shaped and 5'7, 268lbs today, and could squeeze into an xl t shirt if I had to.

No worries!
