Well today I finally had to go and buy new jeans. Mine are falling off. Yes I'm down two dress sizes (jeans anyway).
I'm still not happy with myself. Stupid I know.

    Everyone has their own level of what makes them happy. It all depends, I think it's GREAT, but you have to feel good about it.

    OOOOO I am so jealous! I can't wait to go down a full jean size... I have lost an inch off the waist and an inch off the hips...but those darn pants go down 18 - 16- 14 - 12 - 10... Why don't they make a 17 - 15 - 13 ???? There is a size 9 - 7 & 5.... what do they think we "in between gals" dont count?????

    Be Happy,,,,, Be Happy ,,,, Be Happy ! No more Baggies!!!!

    We're women and cannot be objective about our own bodies. I think that's why we need support and solid documentation including before and after pics, measurements, and keeping track of weight loss. Congrats on the progress! :)

    You should stop beating yourself up and be VERY proud that you are making progress. Hooray for you!

    It took me soooooooo long to have to buy a new size. I went from 18w to 14. It seemed to happen fast when it did. Be proud of your weight loss so far. We are!!! I find it strange that when I look at myself sometimes I still see the old me at 230. You will notice that everyone else will start commenting on how great you look and then you'll start to really see the changes--it's like it takes someone else to say something before we do. Kind of crazy!

    Thanks all. My co-workers have made positive comments. Yes it's nice. I guess I will always find
    something negative lol..

    Funny how you can see results but then you complain about where you lose it first. Smaller cup size, off to buy a few cheap bras. Sure no problem that didn't bother me at all LOL Husband was not too happy (he was kidding of course). He could care less. Then he was buying new the jeans and I tried on the regular 16 then felt horrible about myself. Tried on the 16 plus and they fit no problem.

    You may want to be even smaller, but be proud of your accomplishment! You couldn't wear this size before, look how far you've come
