cleaning the closet and up and down

I though going threw the closet right now was gonna be rewarding and not a really big deal I mean I put on clothes size 30 jeans and felt good they were huge on me but then I tried on these pants size 24 and they were so tight on me and they were like 2 years old not like i was thinner 2 years ago ? it kinda baffled me .. like I had no lost 34 lbs and showed nothing for it ..yet alone 64 lbs from my all time high it really hit me hard .. I got rid of them as they did nothing for me but make me look fatter and geting me depressed has this happenend to anyone ? I mean hubby has yet to clean out his clothes 1 year post op and everything is swimming on him .. infact he fits in his high school letterman jacket and it zips up nicely I feel like I have not lost anything when I put on those pants .. I have this huge stomach apron where 90% of my weight is .. when does that leave? I can see the loss in my face arms boobs waist but lower stomach not yet .. I did not think I would would react this way .. over 1 pair of pants. I put on my trama emt pants and the belt is 10 inches to big .. been a rollar coaster morning .. part of me can't beleive I was that fat and part of me feel I have lost nothing .. my head is spinning here with mixed emotions Lisa

Lisa - I know how you feel! I am losing nicely, but my mid section is horrible! I could be in a smaller size if not for my mid section. If someone knows the secret please share! Roz

Roz I just wish I could cut off my mid section sometimes LOL but I will no doubt will n be need ing a surgeon to due the cutting LOL Lisa

Hello, fellow "apple" sisters, Lisa and Roz! I have the same issue-all my weight's in my midsection, and if it wasn't for this huge tummy I'd be in a way smaller size on top. Why don't we get to pick and choose where the weight comes off? It's so frustrating! Oh well, at least we're losing, and we are looking pretty darn fabulous, I would say...

yep, i hear you on the apron thing. I can wear size 18 skirts, but I can also wear my 26 overalls just fine, lol. I think my apron will be the last to go and it will involve a tummy tuck and new belly button!! Inky

Apron people unite .. I went to seminar where a plastic surgeon was showing people with a apron and u know the worst case slide he was showing i was worse .. i could lose a hand in the fold of my apron LOL.. it just hangs soooooooooooo bad .. like more comes up more it shows out front.. kills my back i am looking like a pair shape no boobs and a huge belly.. LOL Lisa
