onmywaytobeingfound 163 Posted September 8, 2015 I'm down to a 14 tall from lane Bryant and just got a vera Wang shirt size large!! Bra down to 38dd. I can't express how happy I am and I've still got around 40lbs to go. What an amazing journey this is! No regrets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mtraverse 327 Posted September 12, 2015 They had a bake sale at work today to raise money for a coworker who lost a loved one and I had to be the one to organize the goodies and go to 4 floors to get the donations and dole out the treats. Plus they were all in my office for the morning. The smell were great. I didn't even have a lick of one! True test of my determination during this process! Everyone was very impressed with my willpower as was I! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carebear42 82 Posted September 14, 2015 I LOVE buying clothes now! I used to hate it, get depressed and be miserable. I'm trying so hard to wait on buying a lot since I still have more to lose. Down 50 pounds now!!! wahoo! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trayjay33 138 Posted September 17, 2015 I'm not sure if this is a NSV but it was surprising. I usually put my hair bands around my wrist so I would have it handy. When I was overweight I would have to take it off shortly after putting it on because it would start squeezing my wrist. Today I realized I could keep it on all day but also when I pulled up my long sleeve shirt my hair band pulled up to my upper arm and I didn't realize it until I was looking for it to put in my hair. I guess my upper arm has gotten quite a bit smaller. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mommabird 367 Posted September 17, 2015 I had my 9 month post-op check-up yesterday. My surgeon (who I saw 2 months ago for an unrelated issue) walks into the exam room, does a double take and says "Holy cow! I didn't even recognize you! You look fantastic!"

nieuwevis 294 Posted September 18, 2015 so, about 6 weeks ago, i scored some size 18 (older and newer) jeans for $6. the newer 18s were a little tight, the older ones are at most today's 16s. i'm now in the "tighest" pair. i was last in a 16 when i was 16 lol. then my most awesome mil took me shopping. i'll post my first progress pic in that outfit when i wear it to her party :big cheesy grin: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mommabird 367 Posted September 23, 2015 In May 2014, I had just been to the informational seminar and was two days away from my first weigh-in required by Aetna, when I attended my nephew's wedding. I wore a snug 3X dress. I had my Gastric Bypass in December. On October 3rd,I will be attending my niece's wedding wearing a very comfortably fitting size 14 dress!

leanne1126 84 Posted September 24, 2015 I just realized this yesterday....I work at a hospital and the employee parking is the furthest lot and it's down a hill. Daily I have to walk up the hill to get to the hospital and it just dawned on me yesterday that I am no longer winded or sweaty by the time I get into work. I am about 2 lbs away from hitting my 100lb mark since I started dieting last year around this time. Between that and the several spin and zumba classes each week I am feeling awesome!

leanora27801 315 Posted October 5, 2015 I went shopping for the first time since my surgery in December 2014. As usual i picked up the biggest size of a 22 and also a size 18, because I wasn't sure what I wore anymore. To my surprise, the 18 fit perfect, and I haven't worn a size 18 since I was 12 years old.
