abefroman329 704 Posted January 12, 2018 Way to go! I was a 46 before the surgery, now I'm a 44, and those are too big (but 42s are too small). I saved an artifact from way back when I first started losing weight when I was at my peak, size 52 waist jeans. I hope to bring them to a support group meeting one day very soon.

kandywolf 161 Posted January 13, 2018 Great job! What a difference! Congratulations! I agree your bank account wont be happy! Lol!I am very fortunate as I have kept my jeans from size 28 down to a 16. I am in 20/22 now! We do have a clothing closet, so that helps (all free, can go every week, and I donate back the sizes too big!) I got a pair of Rockin Republic jeans at Kohls before Christmas on clearance for $10. Size 20. They fit perfectly then, now not so much! I did buy a belt to help with that though! Lularoe leggings have been my life saver! I have worn them since I was a 28! So 8 sizes and they still fit! I bought 2 brand new pair so that was $50 and $10 or $15 for the used pair. $65 for a little over 2 years of wearing is awesome to me! And still going strong!SW 350 (11/15)BSW 260 (10/17/17)CW 224 (1/3/18)RGW 199GW 175 1 SkyJade reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sullie06 1,013 Posted January 16, 2018 Congrats you are doing great! Its such a wonderful feeling isn't it? I've gone from a size 22 to a size 10/12 and a size S/M top. It's insane! It is a hit to the wallet though, especially if you have to wear dress clothing for work. 1 logicwand reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
