Initially I didn't want to know but got the starting number at my last appointment.) Today I tried on and bought a pair of size 18 jeans (22 British) . I'm thrilled, it's the first time in almost 30 years I've fit in that size. I was size 24 (28 British) when I started at the end of June. (My heaviest was a US/Canadian 26 which isn't even on the conversion chart). I'm so happy to get out of plus size and fit into XL & L (depending on the brand) in regular clothing. So much more choice. Although good blood glucose was (and is) my main motivating factor, it's very rewarding to see reductions in weight and size. I still have a long way to go, but it's very motivating to see progress.</blockquote>
