Size Goal Instead Off Weight.



Recommended Posts

I have a weight goal but if I get to the size/shape I want then I will stop. At 135 I am a size 8, sometimes a 6 depending on brand or fit. I think a small 6 is my goal. I'm keeping an open mind though.

I've never been anything but plus sized so my go

al is to shrink out of plus size clothes and never fit ANYTHING plus size again.

Started at a 24...wearing a 14 now, however my male cousin commented about my sagging ass pants yesterday.

I think I will stick with 14's until fall and buy new then. Hope to have hit my goal weight by my year anniversary on 11/30. My husband started in a 48 jeans, and bought him 36 in June.

I still have a weight goal..set by my doc.....so we will see how it goes.

Well, in my mind I've always dreamed of being a 14 again... I remember getting really mad at my mom in high school because she bought me size 14 jeans and I thought they were sooooo huge... So ever since I exceeded a 14 I've felt really badly about myself.

That said, I started this journey in April at a 20/22, and at only 36lbs down am already wearing an 18... Suddenly wearing a 14 doesn't seem so far away!!

So all things being equal, I'd LOVE to be an 10/12... I don't see myself in an 8, but a 10/12 would be amazing!!!

I started at a size 18/20/22 (very tight 18) 6 months later I can fit into some 14's but my current size is 16. I can still wear some of my 18's that did not fit before and they're very loose. I don't know what my goal is right now but I would love to shop at a regular clothing store instead of the "plus". :D

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
