bandayed 0 Posted June 2, 2006 My feet are shrinking too -- I thought it was just the width from weight loss, but when I got out my sandals from last year -- you know how you can see the footprint -- (gross but true) Well the actual length of my foot is shorter. I was in a 10 and now I'm a 9! I was an 8.5 before kids & weight gain maybe I'll get there again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Telly 4 Posted June 2, 2006 My feet are shrinking too -- I thought it was just the width from weight loss, but when I got out my sandals from last year -- you know how you can see the footprint -- (gross but true) Well the actual length of my foot is shorter. I was in a 10 and now I'm a 9! I was an 8.5 before kids & weight gain maybe I'll get there again! Haha bandayed, What's really weird is ..I've got these kinda sandal/platforms and there is that leather piece that goes overtop of the foot...that piece used to be very very tight but now my feet just slide out while i walk in them. They have made me fall a few times b/c they are so loose now. It's time for a wardrobe change but I don't think I should waste my money being as I'd be in a size 7 in a few months I was thinking though, I don't want to have anymore kids so I'd definately get a Tummy Tuck once I'd hit 145lbs. My goal is 135lbs but I know that doctors remove about 5 - 15lbs of excess skin when they do tummy tucks. So is it customary to actually hit goal weight first, such as 135 and then get a tummy tuck? If I had to do this then I may be smaller than a size 7 or maybe right at 7, who knows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juliegeraci 7 Posted June 2, 2006 I am at size 24/26 and would love to be in a size 18. I'm 5'8" and the smallest I have been was 14. That is more difficult to maintain for me. Time will tell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HunnyBun 2 Posted June 2, 2006 I am a 22 right now, sometimes even 24 but I try to avoid it. 22 jeans are tight though. I'm hoping to be a size 4 or 6. I know I'm capable of a 6. I could probably get down to a 4 if I excercise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SherryW 4 Posted June 3, 2006 I'm 5'4'' started in size 26/28 pants now in a loose 22. Shirts 26/28 now 22/24 only because I hate the roll showing but, others tell me I should go down a size. I'd love to get into 14s but, 12 or Medium is my dream goal. Good luck everyone...I hope you're all well and shrinking Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jachut 487 Posted June 3, 2006 I'd love to be an Australian 14, which is a US 12. I'm 5ft 10 so that would be nice and slender, but healthy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DiDi 0 Posted April 24, 2007 I'm 5'9 and started as a 22/24 am now down to 16's. (I had to return some size 16 shorts the other day & the 14's fit!) Would like to get down to at least 12. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
louise162 0 Posted April 24, 2007 Pre op I was a UK 28 (US 24). I am currently a UK 24 (US 20) and I hope to get back to UK 12/14 (US 8/10). Clothes sizes vary from shop to shop in the UK. Before my weight gain I could wear a size 12 in TopShop but require a 14 from M&S. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
faithmd 14 Posted April 24, 2007 I am glad someone dug this thread up! I am starting at a US 28 pant and 26/28 top. I would be over the moon to be at US 14, but I will be happy to be a 16 or 18 pant. I have a really large skeletal frame and once a nutritionist told me after doing my assessment that I'd be anorexic looking if I made it to a 12. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dancing Queen 0 Posted April 24, 2007 I started out as a 22/24 and just bought my first size 12 pants this weekend! I am a 12 on top unless it has buttons, then I need a 14 for my two girls. Honestly I am just glad to have something left! I would like to be a 10! Almost there!

deckedout 0 Posted April 25, 2007 I'm 5'2" and started at a very tight 16. I am currently wearing a loose 10 not quite into an 8 yet. I want to see what a 4 looks like, but would probably settle for a 6, if just my belly was flat and firm like those little girls in the belly shirts; alas, I have always had a poofy belly.
