Thats good stuff Liz keep up the good work you look beautiful!!!

I myself have started to notice that the clothes I haven't worn in a couple years are fitting now. I also had to put in an order at work for more uniforms.

My NSV, I bought a pair of size 12 jeans for later...and I tried them on and they fit NOW!! Im 9 weeks post op and started off at a size 16. The size 12's are really snug, but I cant believe I can get them on (buttoned and zipped ;-) )!

Everyone is doing so well! I love to hear all about NSVs.

-I always thought of my lab partner and thought thats what I want to look like. Well the other night we swapped some clothes and all the clothes I got from her were all a little too big!

-The fact that I can actually swap clothes with my friends! who would have known I would see the day!

- I now wear a size M top and a size 12 bottom. I used to be a 3x/2x and 26/28.

-I work in a store where designer is everything and I could never fit into designer jeans until now! I'm offically a size 32 in jeans.

-I have run into a few people I went to high school with and none of them recognize me. This is nice but it is also really embarrasing when you say hi and they look at you like you're crazy.

i bought my first pair of jean shorts -- EVER! and guess what? they are a size EIGHT from zara.. and even a little loose around the waist! i actually considered going back and exchanging them for a 6, but i've never tried that low a size and it just seems crazy to me. next time i'm around there i promise i will try on the smaller size... but for now i'm just gonna enjoy these shorts while its still hot outside!

my goal size at the beginning of this journey was to wear a solid 8.

Good job Jane!

I have to use a belt now for my size 38 work shorts. I've always dreamt about being able to wear anything in the 30's... and now I'm more than halfway to a 36. Woo! Kind of ike Jane said though, anything smaller than a 38 seems crazy right now.

I have two NSV's to post!

1. Got my hair cut...no chopped off...SHORT! Like above my shoulders! This is a big deal for me because I've always had super long hair that I wore down...like a shield or security blanket covering my body or something. The biggest amazing thing is that I'm comfortable not having my hair to hide behind and *gasp!* might actually even like my new hair style! lol

2. People have been noticing the weightloss! I've seriously had like 10 different people comment on how good/how much thinner I'm looking over the past week or so. Feels so good! Especially since my scale hasn't been moving much lately and I've been feeling so frustrated lately.

Two great NSV's! Looking forward to more throughout this process!

I had one that I realized yesterday. So to ride the bull at a club i go to you have to be under a certain weight. Now when I started my journy I was almost 90 lbs and thought I would never be able to. I as of a few days ago could now ride this bull if I wanted to. I am so excited

Wow. That's awesome. Good job! I'm still counting the days where I can start wearing clothes from Pacsun.

And Angie, the size 31's look great on you.

Awesome Job!

thanks MrRiceGuy...

yeah it's strange because remembering back to when I was 165 I wore a tight 14 from american eagle...now I wear a comfortable 12 at 183...has there been a change with vanity sizing or something in the last 5 years? :S

Wow, I haven't worn 38's since I was in high school and worked out A LOT. I'm happy that I'm down to 42's. 38 is closer to my final goal. I'm jealous. Good job, duder!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
