Well, I'm down 60 pounds, which is 44.5% EWL. I'm thrilled with my progress so far and if I can average 8 pounds a month from here on out, I'll be at goal by the end of the year. I think that sounds reasonable!

As you guys know, my recovery has been smooth and basically issue free. (I am very grateful for this.) Other than the Frito incident, there have been no foods that I can't tolerate, though sugar alcohols do give me gas. It's not painful gas, though.....Well, not painful to me, but maybe to those around me! LOL! Other than that, my DS life so far is pretty boring, but I'm glad.

I started out in a 26/28 in tops. I'm not sure about pants as I was in Lane Bryant's 5 jeans, but they were way too tight. Now, I'm in an 18/20.

Thanks! I might be able to squeeze into a 16 top, but there's no way on the bottoms. Those jeans I'm wearing are a 20 and they fit my waist perfectly. They are a bit baggy in the legs and butt, but my stomach is hanging onto fat for dear life.
