I'm 15 Weeks post RNY. I have been on a plateau for 4 Weeks, haven't lost a pound. On surgery day I walked into the hospital wearing a size 26 pant. Being frustrated with the scale because I'm doing everything perfect according to my Dietician & surgeon, I dug out the smallest pair of pants that I had stuffed in the back of my closet. Sighing to myself that I'm stupid for attempting this because I'm just gonna depress myself even further, I pulled those babies on & they flippen buttoned AND zipped without a wrestling session!

Size 16 baybayyy!!! (I was wearing a very loose 22 when I took them off to try the 16!!!) It feels like I just skipped a couple of sizes!

3 months ago I would have never imagined this achievement would happen so quickly. It was so shocking that my brain didn't even process it. I almost thought that it was possible that I was imagining the size on the tag!! lol Our brains can be so crazy mean to us. I'm so happy!! Who needs a scale anyway??

I skipped sizes in the process too.  Beware as you get smaller you'll change clothes sizes even quicker (or it was my experience anyway).

Congrats!

Congrats Wrapdiva! I was just like you with a 5 weeks plateau but the scale is moving again and I can't wait until I fit in a size 16!!! Congrats again and best of luck to you!
