Ok so this last weekend my hubby took us to get some clothes for the holiday weekend at the lake.. ugh. I love the lake but for the time i dont care for the attire. So we are at Ross my favorite store bc they have cute stuff for all shapes and sizes. I find a few shirts I like and then I went over to the shorts. The last time (if i cant be honest about my weight with you guys who can i be honest with) I bought shorts (a couple of months ago) i was a size 24 and boy were they tight. So I grabbed a pair in that size and just to see how off i was I got the next size down (22) when i tried on the 24's they were too big..yay...then i tried on the 22's...and they were too big as well...yesss...so then i went and got a size 20 and a size 18. I tried on the 20's and they were loose...at this point i squeal and start dancing infront of the mirror. the lady in the stall next to mine comes out laughing sees me dancing smiles and says "did we lose some weight" I blushed and nodded my head and went back in the stall. I tried on the 19s and i was able to button and zip them but they were way to tight. so i got the 20's. but hell thats still a lot better than what i expected. Then when we had gotten home some shirts I had won had come in the mail and unfortunately they were larges. I tried on the shirt and shockingly even though it was tight i was able to move around in it w/o snapping seams... so then I decided to be brave and buy a tankini. it arrived today and after i tried it on i took a pic. I have posted the pic on here sure its not the greatest ive looked but im getting there hopefully by next summer I'll be a lot smaller.

That's awesome. The first big jump in sizes had me doing happy dances in the change room (and, well, out of it) too! Great work
