in Health and Weight Loss
My sister came from out of town and made me go clothes shopping with her. She said my clothes were to baggy. I like them that way. I usually by pants sized extra large with the strechy waistband so I didn't know what size to try on. Got a 16 they were to big, got a 14 they were to big. I said there is know way I can fit in a 12 but guess what . The 12,s fit and they acutally have a button and zipper instead of elastic waistband. I was very surprized. I can't ever remember fitting in a 12 even in my younger days.Still have 11 pounds to go to reach my goal but I think if the weight keeps coming off this easily I will aim for a lower goal. The last time I was at the weight that I am right now was 30 years ago. What had I been waiting on.

    Great job! The same thing happened to me last weekend! I went into the Gap and grabbed a 12 and a very hopeful 10. (haven't seen a 12 in over 4 years and got lucky once 10 years ago with a 10 loose fit) anyway, I said to my kids, well, should I try on the hopefuls first? well, I did and they fit! I was so excited!
    I went into TJ Maxx and again grabbed a 10 and bought them for Easter AND they were big??? I think it was the brand that ran big but I didn't care!
    I have been an 18, 16, 14 and now am at a comfortable 12. I would LOVE to be an 8 which I don't even think or should I say know I wasn't even in high school! Hey, maybe a 6? ...
    okay, now I'm getting out of control!

    GOOD FOR YOU!!! KEEP IT GOING!!:drinker:
