I know exactly how you feel!! Being able to shop in the NON-Plus sized section is a great feeling!! I am almost to ONE-derland myself, a place i haven't been since high school (over 20 yrs ago).

I did a similar shopping spree this last weekend but I am down and fitting into the jr section (10) , down from a size 20!!
It does feel wonderful..
Congratulations!!0 -
I dared to go shopping for clothes for the first time last weekend and I was putting on clothes 2 sizes smaller than what was in my closet currently and they fit me, also crossing the great W-M divide. GREAT FEELING!! It's weird to get used to because your perception of yourself hasn't caught up with the reality! Keep up the great work

Good for you!
I just recently cleaned out my closet and I too had to go to the misses section for tops (the first time in as long as I can remember). I didn't shop for pants, but I can't wait to be in the misses sizes for them too!0 -
That totally made me tear up a little. I remember a similar experience in the dressing room. I started at a 20/22W and the day the clerk said I think you need to try on a 4 (whaaa????) I cried a little.
Congratulations on your amazing progress!0 -
CONGRATULATIONS!!! It is a awesome feeling to buy clothes in misses department. I too started out in the W section. I have lost 35 lbs and I have a COMPLETELY NEW WARDROBE!!! I will have to say I do miss some of my favorite outfits, but not the size they were. I have been consignment/good will shopping because I too don't want to spend a lot of money on clothes every other month and I have to say I have found some VERY CUTE, IN STYLE, NAME BRAND clothes...Good Luck on your journey!!0

I finally went through my closet and got rid of a bunch of stuff cuz it was just time, i couldnt wait any longer. I'm ready to shop!0

I am so happy for you!:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
Luckily, I wear skirts and tops all the time..
and gratefully, I wear MAXI'S,
which happen to be "in" this summer.
Have bought everyone I could find..and went to Fashion Bug, (same kind if set up, also "Cato's"), and can wear the JR 21-23's..
Down from the 24-26,s I was wearing.
I am big busted,:blushing: so I can't wear too many of the JR tops, even have a few 18's.
am happy with what I am doing, blessed to be "In style" for once:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
these skirt's can be taken in as I lose more weight.
I do not buy what I call "Expensive" clothes-
Lane Bryant is where I shopped when I worked as an RN and made $$$$,
but now, not so much.:ohwell:
Besides, it seems like every blouse in there (LB) had to be sewed up 3" so half my boob's weren't on display...:noway:
As usual, I made this all about me..
So sorry..:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: (I wonder if I should count it as Cardio? lol))0 -
What a great experience! You're going to love shopping more and more!0

YOU GO GIRL!!!
I'm SOOOOO happy for you!!! You have me all excited to get there myself! I've about 8 lbs to go to 199. Soon...
I'm really looking forward to actually ENJOYING clothes shopping. Been way too long.
And YES!! Get rid of those old, big clothes and NEVER go back!! Woo-Hoo!0 -
Oh yeah - and about wearing the "too big" clothes, not wanting to spend money every month...
All my jeans are so loose I pull them up and down without unbuttoning/zipping! lol Feels kinda good, as a reminder of the weight I've lost so far, but boy! Looks bad! Miss droopy bottoms has gotta go soon.

I completely identify! One of my goals is to get out of the "WOMEN'S" dept. GREAT JOB!!! Shop away! :bigsmile:0

Wonderful! I'm very happy for you. I met a milestone today although not as great as yours. Today for the first time maybe 25 years I could weigh myself on my vintage 60 plus year old scale. Guess people were not as heavy way back then. I know I sure wasn't. This old set of scales still weighs perfectly. Things were also made to last way back then.) 0

What a great story and such an inspiration! I can't wait for that day!
You go girl You are doing great and deserve it! 0 -
Holy bananas! I am so happy for you! Heck, I almost started tearing up, that is so exciting and awesome! Way to go!
Glad I wasn't the only one that almost teared up...
Congrats on a JOB well done0 -
