goingfoit 125 Posted March 2, 2013 ok i just have to share. i decided to go to the store and buy some jeans since all of my clothes are hanging off my body now. I hit the clearance racks and i pulled sizes ranging from 12-8. i tried the 12 and put them on and immediatley fell to the ground, next the 10 just about the same thing happened, then the 8 they fit good and yet still a little loose, who would've thought i'd be going back for a SMALLER size (6) i put them on and they FIT i have never been able to pull up a size 6 let alone button them. OMG i almost started to cry. i'm not one to rely on the scale so this morning i weighed myself and i have lost a total of 60 lbs!!!!!!!!!!! i love my lap band and love that it keeps me honest. it goes to show you work with it and it will work with you. me and my lap band are one. i have developed a relationship with the band. We've had our ups and downs but we continue to work through it together. wishing everyone much success take care 18 Terry Poperszky, SeaSounders♥, flrosie and 15 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
