January 7, 20188 yr Poking around in my closet last night, I put on my favorite Capri cargo pants from last spring......let go of the waist and they fell right off my butt. Like seriously...didn't even need to tug them...just wiggled a little and they slid off. I giggled like a loon and called my husband in and showed him. I remembered they took my measurements when I started at my group. I dug the paperwork out, and got out my measuring tape. I've lost two inches on my bust. One inch on my hips. One inch on my neck. And a whopping SEVEN inches on my waist:) My cargo Capris were baggy...I was buying an up-size because of my waist. Waist reduced and the rest was already baggy. Off they fell:) Am love, love, loving getting my waist back:)

January 7, 20188 yr What a sweet post @Tealael! One of the things that sabotaged me most in the past was not recognizing my accomplishments, so this is really nice of you. That is awesome @Creekimp13! I looove when my clothes get too big. My bank account doesn't so much though! I guess I will humble brag that I've just hit my 11 month mark and lost 130 pounds. My waist has gone from 52" to 33" I went from a size 3x to a L or M. Thanks for letting me brag, I'm soooo happy! Edited January 7, 20188 yr by fruitandveggies
January 7, 20188 yr Such a lovely post! Amazing achievements to you both.I’m only 5 days post op, you have both inspired me for what’s to come [emoji173]️ xx
January 7, 20188 yr I love the idea of this! There is so much we accomplish in small bouts and it all deserves to be celebrated!! I am getting sleeved tomorrow but I'm SUPER proud of myself for sticking to my pre-op diet while I was stranded in LA 3 days this week due to the storm on the east coast. Had to take an uber to the drug store to get protein drinks. lol.
January 7, 20188 yr Love this! I actually find everyone's bragging inspirational. Can't wait until I'm in the same spot as everyone else! Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app
January 7, 20188 yr Thank you for the opportunity! I am pre-op and halfway through the supervised nutrition visits and as of today have lost 50 pounds (I am a high BMI-er). I wish I could tell, but I don’t look any different to myself in the mirror. I am down a couple of sizes, though. Three more nutrition visits to go!
January 8, 20188 yr Love this post. Congrats to everyone! I was sleeved 12/27/17, and am down 15 pounds since my surgery and 43 pounds from my highest weight when I started all this in October. Yesterday, I took a selfie. Straight on. Not holding my phone up in the air to hide my double chin. And when I reviewed the picture- double chin was gone! I’m not gonna lie, I was pretty excited! Lol:)
January 8, 20188 yr Way to go @brightfaith! You sound like you are setting yourself up for great success. I hope your journey goes well. I'm 16 months out but remember trying to slog through those pre-op appointments. Hang in there. You got this.
