Pants Too Tight..and Im Excited !!



Recommended Posts

Ok my little non scale victory.I've lost 57 lbs since my pre op diet 3/23/12 banded 4/6/12. Other than the boobies dropping I couldn't really tell in my clothes.yes some stuff fit a bit loose but I can still where most of my size 26 and 24 clothes. So today I decided to go into the Avenue a plus size store and I tried on size 22 jeans.They fit good.then I said " what the he'll ?!" and pulled a pair of size 20 from the rack.I thought at least I will see how close I get to buttoning them then I can gauge how far I have to go. Well they slipped on and zipped ! I had trouble with the button but managed to get it closed.I had a bit of a muffin top but was excited none the less.I actually use to wear my jeans that tight 15 years ago...this. Was very inspiring to me !! And it helped refocus me.Now I can actually see a size 18 and maybe even 16 .my mind can't comprehend single digit pants sizes yet but I feel good about where I've come.

Congrats! Go buy the pants. It is such a boost to wear cloths that fit. We don't realize how baggy our clothes get.

Enjoy your nsv, Celebrate with new pants!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
