I am so happy to be in a size 14 jeans.  Today I tried on a dress that was a 12 actually.  I can't remember the last time I was in anything smaller than a 16.  At the height of my journey I was wearing 28!

I am wearing jeans size 13/14. I have some skirts that are 12 but dresses are 14. I started my journey in a very tight 28 and some 30 and 32 size.

The greatest thing for me is that I actually got my prom dress on. It is tight but I still have more to lose so I know that it is going to look good in a couple of months.

I am in a size 12 and can squeeze into a size 10 jeans but not very comfortably.  It's hard to believe how much my life has changed this year and it has all been for the good.  I was wearing a 22 this time last year.  I have not been in a 10 - 12 since high school.  I love having my life back!

 I am currently in a size 26/28 sometimes 30/32 but only if it is a button up shirt.  I feel so blessed to be able just go in plus size stores to shop now!  
When I started my journey clothing was always a tight squeeze into the biggest items I could find.  I had to special order from people that sewed.   Usually vendors at the SSBBW/BBW Bash's.  Anything as long as it was slinky material and the biggest they had would work pretty much.  The looks of the clothes was not important as long as it covered me. Slinky is so friendly in the maximizing of the stretch!!

Along my journey since 08/23/10 I have actually been able to wear a bra and underwear again.  It does feel amazing! 

I will be getting married 07/04/12 and hoping to be small enough to buy my wedding dress.  I have never been able to buy a fancy dress to wear.  Alway had to have it special made. 

So many changes, each day is a blessing.  Hard work and determination!!

I went from a 22W to a 2/4. It depends on the designer/ store. I never in a million years would have guessed that I would wear a size 2 anything!

I'm about 177 and I'm in mostly 10s. Just bought my first pair of size 8s the other day and couldn't wait to wear them to work. I still can't believe it.

All my other work pants are size 12 and I can't believe how baggy they feel now. This has been a great year!! I was in 24s when I started.

 Hello again everyone. I'm just following up. I am still in size 14 jeans and xl shirt.  But I am 3 days from 1 year post op and down 153.2 lbs. I wanted to be 150 down at a year so I met my goal there. I am about 32 lbs from my goal of being 150 lbs. congrats again on everyone being 1 year post op this month!!
