You WILL wear a size 4, I'm sure of it. I get my jeans from The Gap and I wear 4's and 6's, one style one size, a different cut, a size larger. Either way, I do not remember ever wearing either size!! I'm 53 and am smaller than I've ever been, except when I was a 'kid'. In jr. high through HS I worse a size 11 or 13, depending on what it was. I did get down to a size 9 wedding dress at age 19!! That was the last I saw of that size!!! I'm thrilled, shopping is FUN. I go to the mall and just try on stuff and window shop just because I CAN!!!!! Prior to surgery I felt bad after go shopping and I ONLY shopped when I NEEDED something, never for fun!!!

Thank you :)  It's surreal for me to even think about being that small.  I adore shopping now.  It makes me so happy to actually know I will find things that I love on me, instead of shopping for something that isn't too terrible and will actually fit.  My credit card is sizzling from all the action it's gotten.  Haha

Congrats!  Just curious...do you have a lot or some lose skin?  I have so much from my pregnancies I don't think I can get into a size 6 without plastics!

I have some on my upper thighs and arms, and my stomach is a mess (in my opinion). There's definitely not enough to affect sizing. It's just loose and deflated. I'm very interested plastics. :)

Trust me, you will get into a size 4. I'm 134 lbs and wearing size 4 but recently bought a size 2 skirt from Eddie Bauer. Gotta love vanity sizing. The last time I was 135 lbs I wore size 7/8 - that was in 1983 after losing the weight from having my daughter. Now, I kind of worry about losing any more and having to buy my clothing from a petite store... I just want to shop the regular stores!

How exciting! Congratulations! The change is remarkable!

The sizes that people are wearing at these different weights amaze me! I can't imagine actually wearing a size 6 but my first weight loss goal is 145 and I see postings of people that are wearing that size at that weight! The lowest I have weighed in the last 25 years was 155 (for about 2 minutes!) and I wore a size 12. Maybe things have shifted and I will be in a smaller size this time!

Congratulations! I'm not being sarcastic here, but, are you tall? I'm 5 feet , 5 inches and weigh 165#. I just bought a pair of jeans at Old Navy that were a 14. Even accounting for the fact that I have a droopy sharpei dog type of abdomen, after losing 115#, I'm no where near a 6. Keep up the great work!

No, I'm 5'6.5. I'm also muscular and built like a hourglass so my weight is evenly distributed. I wear an 8 in nicer jeans
