My story is almost identical! I bought a pair of 8's and I couldn't believe when they were too big (out of the dryer). My husband asked me if I had tried a size 6 and I laughed and said no...I don't dream of that size. Now I haven't bought any size 6 but when ever I get the chance I try on size 6 at every store. Congrats to your success and keep us updated!

That's an awesome success! I can't even imagine what a 6 must feel like. I just got into 10's. Gosh, how big were those size 12's you were still wearing when you bought the 6! Congratulations to the new you!

That is sooo cool!! I had a similar thing happen to me too -- funny when you get low enough in weight, you don't realize what size you are -- I guess the body dysmorphia continues . . . I bought size 8 pencil skirts to wear to work come this fall (I teach) -- well, when they came in the mail, I decided to try them on and they fit -- who'da thunk?

So happy happy day!! Size 6 -- hooray! :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.
