I originally started my weight loss journey in Jan of 2013, but didn't really make a lifestyle change until Sept 2013. Last night I went to buy some new shorts and a pair of pants. I've always hated shopping, because of the obvious reasons, but last night I felt great! I am finally down to a size 11 in juniors (started at a 15). I might have been able to squeeze in a 9, since the 11 wasn't snug at all, but I didn't want to ruin my high!

I haven't been in a size 11 since just after high school!

    That is fantastic! I just tried on a 12 yesterday from a size 18 and they fit, so I know the feeling!

    Congratulations! Trying on new clothes is fun. I have gone from having to make my own clothes, to wearing 6x, then to 4X, and now I can shop in "regular" size stores for 3X to 24W. Still very large, I know, but hey, at least now I have a choice in clothes (including a bright pink denim jacket - LOL!)

    Great job!! I am excited for you!

    I was also able to buy much smaller shorts and tops from a non-plus size store! I was elated.
