lord have mercy
Ok so I am 3 months out and when I began losing weight right after surgery I was going through clothes like crazy...spending lots of money only to have it all not fit in a couple weeks. So I have since then ventured out to my local thrift shop where they have clothes for $1 and $2... Alot easier on the wallet. Well I went in there today bc my family is having a fourth of July celebration and none of my jeans/shorts fit. So I was looking around and of course they had nothing in my size...But they did have some jeans and jean shorts that were two sizes smaller than what I wear. And they were really nice so I figured what the heck for a $1 I will get them and put them up...cuz its only a matter of time before I can wear them. Finally got back home and was getting ready to hang them up in the closet and thought I wonder how far I am from wearing these...tried them on and to my disbelief they FIT!! I was like omg... they actually fit! SO this made my day! I am so happy! And on the plus side one more pant size I lose and I will no longer have to shop in the PLUS SIZE section!! Hallelujah!!!!!
I shopped thrift stores too. Then, when I got near my sisters size I asked her if I could borrow some clothes for a little while and I would give them beck. She looked at me kind of funny, but I was out of those in a couple of weeks. She was shocked to my complete delight. Some non scale victories are just so sweet. Congrats on getting out of the Plus sizes!

That must be an amazing feeling. Good for you girl! I'm happy for you!
I can't wait until I start losing sizes. I'm 11 days post op. My pants are already getting baggy and I can tell that it won't be too long before they won't stay up. Luckily, I have a lot of nice skirts with elastic waists that I can safety pin for a while. :)
