Shmily,

You have done an amazing job. How does it feel? I know you had to buy all new clothes. My first time shopping for a single digit size was out of this world. Last time I did was in junior high. I look at the size 6 and say no, that's way to small. But it's actually a little big, and size 4 are a little small. I feel so much healthier. How are you feeling now? Great news, congratulations!

That's awesome! When I tried NutriSystem years ago (among the many epic diet fails), they had something similar- a chain where you attached a pretty bead for every pound you lost. You then had a beautiful necklace to wear that got prettier with each pound closer to your goal you got. I should do something like that on my own, come to think of it

I am not in single digit and probably never will be, but I am not in plus size. A large will fit good and sz 12 jeans. I feel awesome...and pain free. Yes I bought some new clothes but just enough to get me through the season, some at thrift shops and Christmas sales, until I get to where I finally settle wt wise...

Love it.

Shmily,

Before this surgery I was a size 26/28 depending on how sizes ran. Forget trying jeans on, just bought them with elastic waist from Kmart. As my weight came off I got my smaller sizes at savers. It's a center that sells used clothing that was donated for charity. I'm still buying there as they have some really nice things for cheap. Being in a smaller size both excites me and scares me. What if I gain it back? Always in the back of my mind. Anyway, I'm very excited for your progress.
