I was wearing size 18 women's jeans before surgery. I easily wore size 14 jeans today!! I decided to try them on cause my others were getting too loose to wear, fully expecting them not to button. Excited!! Haven't been able to wear them in several years.

I think jeans are one of the best NSV's. A great fitting pair look and feel great...

Well done...

Yippee! I love it when the pants sizes go down, down, down. Sometimes I find mysekf rechecking the label -- can it be true? Yes, indeed! Congratulations......

Congrats! I just went to a seamstress to get fitted for my Mother of the groom dress, and thought ahead to bring in 5 pairs of great jeans/ pants.

She was reasonable and without shopping, I have "new" pants in a smaller size.

Happy.. That is a NSV ... And I adored the MOG dress I ordered 6 months ago... thank goodness.

I guess it's that time of year because I went to my Pcp & they said I had lost 13 more lbs since I seen them a couple of months ago & I noticed even with my belt holding up my pants that they were getting loose , so I thought let me stop by & check out some pants for work , I also took in different sizes started with a size 18 on down to a 12 & I fit in the 12 ,however I don't like my pants real tight because I am scared because I used to have Major I. B. S. SO I settled for the 14 , Yes I start crying in the dressing room every time this happens it's been a while , but I am happy so even though the scale doesn't more quick enough for me , I guess the inches do because I don't feel or see what everyone one else sees until they bring it up, I am loving that I went from a size 26_28 W to a 12_14 depends on the make .

      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.
