8 months out and I can't believe what's happening



Recommended Posts

I'm 8 months post op, and I'm wearing a size 2!

I never thought I would be wearing a 2. Folding laundry is surreal--surely these tiny pants won't fit...but then they do. Everything fits, it's so easy (too easy) to find clothes. Feeling good!

I am so excited to read this post, my stats are very similar to yours 'nothing up my sleeve'. My surgery is on the 8 of September and I am so ready to finally stop this roller coaster I have been on. I can not believe that I will lose that sort of weight...

Wow a 2 crazy!! I am thrilled with my 6's! I asked my husband yesterday to toss me my jeans so I could change and he said "these ones?" He thought they belonged to my preteen kid!

The first little but is tough, but then you get used to a new way of eating and BAM the sizes drop. I was in a 14 for eons, then a 12 for a long time, but after that the sizes drop fast. I think I skipped 8's mostly.

I did this for my health, but the clothing is sure a good motivator to stay focused!

You can do it!

I think the same thing when I'm folding my size 4 skinny Rock Revivals, (goal present). They still look to me like they should belong to a little girl! Never in a million years would I have thought I'd be in this size! And I could conceivably go a little smaller. BMI is 23.2, so I'm still in the top half of healthy. We'll see where I land as I figure out maintenance.

I can only dream of a size 2! I'm happy with my 8's (might be a little happier with 6's but 8's are cool too).

I feel the same. These jeans can't possibly fit. But they do. With room to spare. I used to have red marks across my tummy from my too-tight 22's. Now there's no marks anywhere!

Yeah for us! Congrats!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
