HUGE wow (well, actually a small, tiny wow ;)

Ripped a pair of jeans while I was working today, so I decided to stop along my route to a Kohls as they usually have good sales and clearance prices. I decided to grab a couple pair to actually try on, as the 32x32 jeans I had been wearing seemed a little baggier than I usually like. so I grabbed a 30, 31 and 32 in regular fit straight leg... they were all too big for my tastes.... well, actually the 30s fit nice in the waist and upper hips, but were HUGE in the ass and thighs.... so the next shelf unit over had some "SLIM" straight leg jeans on it. Now, I never really had THAT much excess skin to begin with.  Certainly not enough to even attempt insurance coverage for a panni, just a little bit that if I ever hit the lottery, it would be a nice thing to do for myself.  Also, I've had the feeling that I'd been eating like a pig the last couple weeks, so I've gotten back to weighing myself at least once a week to keep an eye on it... I've still been rock solid between 160-165.  Could whatever excess skin I had... could that still be shrinking? (I've been at this weight roughly since late July/early August) Anyway... I ended up with 30x32 SLIM straight cut jeans that fit ALMOST perfectly (though still not as nice as Babycatcher's avatar pic LOL) So.... I've gone from a 46-48 waist down to a 30 in about 15-16 months. I THINK I last wore a 30 in 3rd or 4th grade Oh yeah... and they were only $9.00

Sean - I learned from a very smart post op friend of mine that no WOW's are small one's - they are all huge and momentous along this journey & I couldn't agree more with her. Your WOW is an awesome one - a true testament to how far you've come on your journey. Congratulations!!!

I'm finding the same thing, Sean.  I'm not losing any more weight, but smaller sizes are fitting me too.  I agree that it has to be the skin.
