SO, I ordered some clothes from fashionbug.com b/c they had a sale going and I needed some cheap clothes for summer. According to their size charts, I was pretty much in between sizes 2X and 3X. (BTW, a 4X used to be really tight on me at my biggest) So, I ordered the 2X, b/c why get the bigger size when I am losing weight, right? Well, the clothes came in today and all the shirts fit perfectly, if not a little loosely, my new Easter dress fit, I ordered 2 shrugs which are both actually a little big, and one pair of shorts fit. The other pair of shorts were actually too BIG! I have NEVER ordered clothes and had them end up too big! They were always just too small! I am SO excited!!!

And, for those who are curious, here is my before and during from when I lost 100 lbs, I have lost 17 more since this was taken.
