lassie 247 Posted September 12, 2012 Woot Woot, down another pant size I am in size 16 I am so excited. I did try on some of my old 14, I could get them fastened but my tummy hung over about 6 inches LOL, so I guess I will have to wait and try them on another day. I know this is not a life changing post but I am happy. Love my band. God bless 6 Disney Nut, farmgirl04, ready2run and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've lost 15-20 lbs since pre op ( not sure of the difference between my scale and the Dr.s since my old one broke and I had to buy a new one.) But I have lost no inches in my waist. And that is a real downer! I just cant bring myself to understand how that's possible? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please do not be discouraged it took quite a few pounds before I noticed it in my clothes, then it just happened, it will come -keep your chin up. In my country we say “keep your pecker up” pecker means chin. LOL 1 ready2run reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FLORIDAYS 3,040 Posted September 13, 2012 Congrats! You will notice that from hear on out you will be needing clothes more often. It was weird... for the first 100 I lost I was able to make do with most of my stuff with pins and creative solutions... Since everythng had elastic waists I could take inthe elastic basically. Those clothes were 3 on top and 4x on bottom. But then when I got into XLs I noticed I started needing clothes sooner thank later but I was losing at the same pace. They say 20 lbs = a dress size... but that never held true when I was fat. But now... OMG is does! In June I was wearing medium tops and 14 bottoms thinking I was skinny as a rail. Ha! 2 months and 20 lbs later some of those mediums are too big and I am wearing sized 10 in pants. Go figure. Best of luck on your continued journey 3 lassie, Aprilsnewlife and ready2run reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
