TBodmer71 245 Posted October 20, 2013 Hello Everyone. Yesterday I went shopping at JC Penneys and I noticed that by brand new (2 weeks old) size 18 jeans were feeling loose. So, I figured I'd buy a couple pair of size 16's. But to my dismay they didn't have any size 16s on the shelf. But I found a pair of 14's figuring they'd bee too small. OMG> OMG>OMG........They fit with room to spare. I left the dressing room and just had to blab the news to someone, anyone. So, the dressing room attendant and a few other shoppers had to endure my story. Next stop......no longer shopping in the "women's/ Plus Size" dept. I started this journey last Nov. with a visit to my PCP. At my heaviest I work size 24 jeans. My surgery was Aug. 26th. My starting weight was 289 Weight before pre-op diet 266 Pre-op 251 Post-op 259 56 Days Post-op 226 Woohoo! Yippee! 4 erikalexandra19, PokeyJo, Crazypants and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
