Hard to say because we are all shaped differently. I was a size 22/24 at 205 pounds. I am down a total of 50 pounds and my tops are medium or large but my pants are mostly size 16 petite. I have seen ladies that weigh 20 pounds more than me but are in smaller pants than me. I'm 5'1 and weigh 155.

I was at your weight, and I'd love to know what other men have lost that where this size also.. So far I am a little over 2 weeks out and at my peak I was 326 before pre-op diet. I am now at 289 and able to fit into size 40 jeans. I was just barely fitting into 42's before probably should have worn 44's.

My goal is 185 which is about where my brother sites who is the same height and looks like me.. He wears 32-34 jeans.

I was 260 and wore a size 46 or 48 pants. Five months, down 50 lbs and I now wear a size 40 (and they hang). Weigh in about 209 today.

I was approximately your weight and height on DOS (335 lb and 5'11"). Wore the same size clothing as well. I would say if you have a really high dedication to eat well and exercise, you could drop to 32/34 pants and m/l shirt size. Awesome don't you think? I like having so many more places where I can buy others now. I am currently a 34 pants and m/l shirt size at 9 months. I think my pants size will trim up a little more as my waist gets smaller. Maybe to a 32. Shirt size will probably remain m/l especially as I continue to strengthen my upper body. Good things are in store for you!

I was 375 at my heaviest and wore 52 pants and size 3x shirts. I am now 6 months post op and down to 266lbs. I am currently wearing size 42, but they are starting to feel a little baggy. I also wear a size 2x shirt, but can fit some 1x shirts as well. My initial goal is 225, but my ultimate goal is around 210. At that point, I think I will be around a 36 waist and large shirts. Good luck to you on your continued journey.

      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.
