Well uhm, I'm 5'3something" and I weigh 201-3 lbs. I wear a US size 16 in jeans with a normal amount of stretch. My legs could easily fit in a size or two smaller but hey, that's what skinny jeans were made for. I definitely carried most of my weight in my stomach, but i'm starting to flatten out and fall in proportion. I figure once I hit 190, I'll be able to get into a 14 and thus, shop in normal people stores.

My top half though, fits into L (for a tighter fit), XL for a normal fit, and sometimes a size larger for more structured tops 'cause my boobs be big.

I'm 176 and can fit comfortably into a 12 although it was MORE comfortable when I was 169! LOL. I could fit into a Gap size 10 at 169lbs. Didn't buy the jeans so I'm not sure if they fit now or not. My goal weight is 155 and I'm almost 5'10". I think I could fit into non-plus size stores when I was around 190.

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

      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! 😞
