How many pant sizes did you lose in a year?



Recommended Posts

Wanting hear some awesome success stories and find out if my goal of going from a 22 to a 10 is setting myself up for disappointment. My husband was trying to be sweet and bought me a dress (10) I've been in love with ages specifically to wear on a vacation a year post-op. Anyway enough about me! How many sizes did you loose in a year??

Oh thanks, that was an older one, here is a recent one from last month when I hit my one year anniversary. In the blue I was at nearly my heaviest weight, I had lost a bit prior to surgery. Then on the right was at one year out.

I have gone from a 20/22 to a 10/12 in 9 months. I am hoping to get into an 8 before my one year post op. Also went from 2x in stretch pants to a large. If my excess skin on my stomach was removed I could easily do a Medium.

This was my experience with surgery. My high weight 254 I went from a 22/24 pants and XX large top.

Goal weight 140 in six months.to a size 3/5 pants and a small to a med top. depending on the designer. I'm now 2 1/2 years out. I maintain my weight in the 130's.

During weight loss I dropped sizes quickly. My husband would have to tell me to get new clothing. I went from a 22/24 to 16 in two months. I can't remember after that how many times changed sizes. But it was many times..lol

I never thought I would be this size even with surgery.

On a side note: I made a video of my loss. I used the photos that my hubby took of me each month to compare my weight loss. Some of the photos make me laugh. I didn't realize my clothing was too large. I needed to change sizes. I had no clue.

You will do great, just keep you eye on the prize, lol!!

I began at a very tight size 24, within a year I was a 00 and have maintained ever since.

The maintenance is the hardest part. Losing is easier, because you have the reward of watching the scale go down, NSV's, smaller clothes and many compliments. You will easily be able to get to size 10!

      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.
