I started out at Size 28/30 bottoms and 4-5 XL tops. I am wearing about 24/26 bottoms now and 2XL tops. I would love to be a size 8/10. That would be my goal and dream size! I honestly never remember being that size! I was probably in early Middle school! <_<

I started at 18/20 pants and xl-2x tops. I want to see 4/6 pants and medium to small shirts. I don't know how realistic those numbers really are. I was 8 and medium in high school, but sizing has changed. Also, three kids later, my hips are not the tiny hips of the prekid years. Then again, my gift to myself, well more to my husband LOL, after this is all said and done and I can actually get off 120lbs, mama's getting fake boobies! I'm down 20lbs so far, so only 100 to go! LOL D cups are going to be the only reason I ever want to wear xl shirts again LOL

What size are you now and what is your dream size.and your realistic goal size?

I want to be 140 lbs, whatever size that may be. I have 50 lbs. to go. I'm wearing some 12's now. I still feel huge and I've lost 70 lbs. I hope I can make it.

I'm 24/26 pants 2x-3x tops. I'm still preop so it is hard to imagine smaller sizes. My BFF told me she had a dream that we were shopping and I was a size 8. That would be awesome.

My shoes too :( last winter surgery could not have been farther from my brain/thoughts. I bought $130 big girl lol thigh boots! Fully loved them with all my heart, but pulled them out and my entire foot slips in and out without opening the zipper lol bitter/sweet moment of offering them to a family member who greatly admired them.

.::SurgeryDate 7/25/12::.

      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.
