Clothes Shopping!

Jan 05, 2013

My pre-op size was 24 pants and 3X top...

So, I went to the thrift store today to find some smaller sizes for the next couple of months. I bought 3 pair of 16's and 1 pair of 18 jeans. I also bought a cute top size XL. I knew none of it would fit me now, but at least I'd be ready when it did.

I got home and tried everything on. 2 pairs o the size 16 jeans actually fit, well, enough to zip them up! I don't have a "muffin top" with them either, but they are tight, especially through my thighs...I've always had big thighs. But, I couldn't believe I actually got them on! I am so stoked! The XL shirt I thought would also be too small, and I know it will look great in another 10-20 pounds, but it actually fits! I am so happy! The size 18's were too tight and so were one pair of 16's, could not get them over my big hips! I don't even care though, I am just so proud of myself. I actually squeezed my booty in some 16's!!

I also bought a new bra from Walmart, that has made a huge difference in how my tops fit me...my old bras were just getting way too lose and giving me ZERO support.

So, tomorrow I will be 4 months post-op!!!
