I went shopping for a fleece shirt to wear under my work shirts to keep warm. Last time I bought any thing I was at a XL to L. I tried on the Large....too big. I tried the Medium....still too big. So I went for a small and.....still too big?!? The last try was a XS and it fit comfortably. HUH? I would love to think this is right but I do know different brands size things differently. Will be going shopping soon for dressy clothes that fit and will see at that time if it was the brand, me or a combination of both.

    If you've lost 158 lbs, I don't think it's such a stretch to go from xl to xs! WAY TO GO!!

    I want to agree also! Not complaining but last time I got to this weight I was still wearing a medium....never did get to a small or XS. (well, I did but it was like a second skin:bigsmile: )
