So I've noticed my skirts and pants are too long for me. I'm tripping over the hems and having to roll up the pant legs. WTF???

I knew the waist would get too loose so I bought a belt before surgery and am using it now to hold the pants up, but why are they getting so long????

Duh!!! I'm shrinking everywhere... I don't have the ass, gut, thighs or hips to fill them out so they are hanging lower.

Sometimes we miss the very obvious!

Yeah me!!! VICTORY.

Hahaha, yes. I wear primarily wrap skirts and I definitely have to tie them higher on my body now than I did initially. And I can now actually buy petite/short pants instead of normal ones. Which is pretty spiffy :)

I actually got taller! Gained back a half inch of height that I had lost - no doubt being squished down shorter by weight. Diane S

Yeah I still have a few old t-shirts that I wear to work around the house. DH asks "did that really used to fit you?" I think we could both fit in them now.
