    I just need to know that I"m not alone. What is your current size?

    I started out wearing a size 24 when I should have been wearing a 26. I am finally getting down to a comfortable size 22 and hope to be down to size 20 by the end of the year.

    I was in a 24W and now I'm in a 12 regular. It's taken me almost a year and a half but it can absolutely be done!

    I started at size 24/258 pounds.
    I'm currently at size 6/8/160 pounds

    It's hard, but can be done. Take one day at a time and remember it's the long haul that works.

    I did, currently a size 12 or 14. It's cause my hips don't lie.

    You are not alone. In January 2012 I was a size 32 and having lost close to 50kg I am now wearing a 22/24.

    good for you!!
  • I started at a 24, my highest was a 26/28, but now I'm at a 14/16. Keep on trucking, you can do it!
  • I have a friend who was put on a strict diet by her doc she was 254 size 24 and dropped to 150 and is a size 4/6 after seven months.

    24/22 friend me if you like! we are all in this together... I'm currently suffering from the "oh crap...We just booked a last minute vacay and we are flying southwest... I know I physically can fit, but it is tight and I dont' want to make the other passengers uncomfortable sitting next to my pear shaped hips, and I especially don't want the stewardess to tell me to get my fat butt off the plane! Wish me luck! 3 weeks to go!

    I started at size 26/28, and they wre actually a little tight. 8 months later I am now a size 16/18. You can do it. It seems overwhelming, but stay focused. The pounds add up quicker than you realize when you start to lose a couple at a time!
  • I started at 24/26 in January. Currently a 16. :)

    i started out at a 24/26 and i am currently conftable at a 16/18 ... i can fit into 14's but its just not comftable to me (i like room to move lol)

    feel free to add me i still have 50lbs to go and want to be a comftable size 12ish (not really made my mind up yet haha!)
  • I started at a 24 and am now wearing a very loose 22. I have one pair of size 20 jeans in my closet that I haven't tried on so I plan to do that this weekend to see if I can wear them now.

    I started at a size 28!!! Now I'm a size 16 but still working on it. I have another 45 pounds to go. It has been long and slow but steady. I hope that doing it slowly will allow me to maintain. Anyhow, don't give up hope. You didn't put the weight on overnight so it isn't going to come off overnight. YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!

    I started at 22-24 tops and really should have been in 26 bottoms. Now I'm a lady's large top, sometimes a medium and a lady's size 16 pant. I've lost 15 pounds since I joined MFP 8 months ago and I've lost 50+ pounds since I started my weight loss journey. No easy task for a 73 year old but it is possible.

    Take it one day at a time and learn from your wobbles. Good luck on your journey.

    I started at a tight 24, should have been 26 but I didn't want to go up another size. I am currently at a comfortable 22, but I have a pair of size 20's waiting in my closet for me.....hopefully soon :)

    Exactly this for me as well.
