I was soo excited , last year for christmas i got some pj's from my sister for christmas. I absolutely love them they are sooo comfy. They are 3x and pans are getting a little too big. I told her i wanted some more of those jammies this year, but in a smaller size (2x) , i got them yesterday and i figured they may be a little too small but I tried them on and they fit. Given they are just knit, but they fit.

Not sure how much i weighed last December , but I know in May I was 318 and now I am 289...but thinking i was definitely over 300 last Christmas....Maybe next year I can get her to get me ones like L...that would be soo great :)

    Way to go!!!! You're doing great! I bet by next Christmas you will easily need a L or maybe a M. Keep it up.
  • Awesome! It sure does feel amazing to witness those little numbers on the tags or your clothing shrinking as you lose weight- it's almost better than the weight loss numbers themselves. Way to go and keep it up!

    Congrats! That is a lot of success, it even goes to show that your loved ones are noticing the weight loss too! She knew that you were no longer a 3X.

    That's awesome!!
    I know that feeling.
    Last summer my friend and I were both losing weight and she was already a couple of sizes smaller than me so she gave me 3 big boxes of clothes, size 18. Well, I looked at them and thought "these will never fit!" , but I reluctently tried them on any way and what do you know, they all fit and some were too big!!! I had been in a 22/24!! I was thrilled. I cleaned out my closet, got rid of all my bigger clothes and replaced them with the ones she had given me. It was such an awesome feeling!

    Keep up the good work. I am so proud of you!!!!

    Thanks everyone!!

    Unfortunately my sister didn't know (she hadn't seen me since September ), I told her to get me the 2x :)

    It is a good feeling. I am still wearing my size 26 pants..they are really to big and fall down all the time...I may have to stop wearing them soon, but they are soo comfy :) i just don't want to wear the 24's and they be too tight (i have tried them on several tiems, they are getting looser each week), i said i am going to keep wearing the 26's till they won't stay up at all.
