A little background on me:
May 2010 - We moved to a small south pacific island...... I weighed 220 pounds - might have been more - that was my last known weight.... never weighed myself ...
so today a year and a half later - I have lost 70 pounds!
I have come back to the states for the first time.
So for the first time in a year and a half, I got to try on some clothes - - I was SHOCKED!!!
I fit into and am wearing size 6!! NEVER have I worn that size! When I started.... 70 pounds heavier I was in a 14 (should have been in a 16) so today I went to a friends house and she was offering me some warm clothes ( I have one pair of jeans that are too big, and no long sleeve shirts - cuz well we don't need them in the tropics!)... I said I can't wear your clothes - I am way bigger than you. She looked at me kind of funny and says, I think you can!... so up to her room we went... she starting handing me clothes to try on, every single thing she gave me fit! I am still in shock! I look at her and think she is tiny... and here I am wearing her clothes...
So exciting... I will have to figure out pictures and post some!
On cloud nine!!

Sounds like you need to re-adjust your self-image! You're way smaller than you think, haha!
Congrats on the NSV. I look forward to being able to swap clothes with my friends someday soon.0
