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.

Highest weight: 335 lbs, BMI 50.9
Pre-op weight: 319 lbs, BMI 48.5
Current range: 140-144, BMI 21.3 - 22

175+ lbs lost, maintaining since February 2012

 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.

Everyone's doing such a great job!!!!

I measure once a week, and I don't have them on me at the moment, but I know that overall I've lost 49.25 inches between my upper arm, chest, waist, abdomen and thigh.
