Okay, the last 18 months(before MFP), shopping was a nightmare. I was wearing a size 14 but should really have been wearing 16's. I remember shopping for a dress in a particular store for a wedding and leaving in tears because I could not find anything that would fit me. It was a really horrible experience and I really didn't shop much after that ordeal.
Anyhow, I went to that same store yesterday looking for some city shorts and I was picking out the 11-12 size. My girlfriend who was with me said "no way, try on the 9-10's". After arguing with her for a while, I was really hesitant but tried them anyway. Guess what, they fit , they fit!!
I bought 2 pair and I have been in total shock since purchasing them.

Woohoo!!!!!!
