I sooo wish I had them. My surgeon's office took them pre-op and they measure you again at your 6 month, but I haven't had my 6 month yet. I changed jobs a couple months ago and my new insurance doesn't kick in until the week of Thanksgiving so I'll have my 6 month at 7 1/2 months.
I cannot wait to see the difference. Yours looks absolutely amazing.
See the difference between your thigh and calf? My calves are so thick that there's only about a 2" difference. Both numbers are smaller now, but relative to each other the calf is still huge. Why I'll never wear skinny jeans. Sigh.

Yes, I wanted to respond to her post, but didn't have my new measurements...got them now...
I haven't been tracking all of the body areas...here's the ones I have...
Pre-OP (4/21/11) Post-OP(9/26/11) (Now)
Chest 44 38 36.25
Waist 47.25 36.5 35.5
Hips 46 43.5 41.25
Arm 13.5 12.75
Thigh 28 23 23
In order to set a goal for measurements, I just googled the typical measurements for a size 6 woman....not sure if that is accurate for my body, but I think that would be my ideal dress size.

"People spend a lifetime searching for happiness; looking for peace. They chase idle dreams, addictions, religions, even other people, hoping to fill the emptiness that plagues them. The irony is the only place they ever needed to search was within." - Ramona L. Anderson
