RawrrAshleex3 137 Posted September 22, 2012 Bought tight 16 jeans about 3 weeks ago. They were bogo so I got a 14 too. I noticed the 16 was a little baggy by the end of the day and said what the hey! Tried on the 14 and they're a little baggy too! lol so I'm in a 14! (originally a 22 4 months ago!) grandmother picked me up a medium top last weekend and it fit. Thought it was a fluke. Got a medium top for me yesterday, tried it on today and it fits!!! (originally an xl-xxl) I kind of want to leave the giant sizing stickers on to show what size Im wearing and how much I've lost lol Also bought my first ever pair of skinny jeans! They never fit my calves and looked wretched. I make em look gooooooood now hehe 3 AdeptDreamer, kryssaboo and Izuri reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Boston George 84 Posted December 8, 2012 Thank you George! I'm down from that now too and can eat just about everything under the sun. 157#' date=' size 10/Medium now! Don't mind the glasses. I was being a dork with my sisters hipster hello kitty glasses lol[/quote'] That's great! You look so good. You were pulling the glasses look off :-) Im still on the soft Protein /mushy stage. Still adjusting to everything. 4 weeks post op. It's been a smooth ride so far. Hope to have the same success as you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RawrrAshleex3 137 Posted December 8, 2012 It's tough to adjust to and can be draining physically and mentally. Eventually you'll be able to eat anything and everything, and go back to the "open the door, nothing looks good, close the door. Open the door again like something delicious appeared, still nothing. Go to the cabinet, nothing. Back to the fridge!" Lol hard because you knowwwww you have to eat for Protein and whatnot, but you're not really hungry. Oi vey!
