I am so loving the fact that I can say this now...
I AM NO LONGER A PLUS SIZED WOMAN !!
I haven't been able to say that in over 15 years. Woooohoo!! I went to buy some jeans yday, and got all teary when I realized I was looking at jeans in the regular women's department. Not the Plus Sized, or "WOMENS" or whatever. Then I got really upset because I couldn't find jeans in my size. I can wear a 14Petite now (I'm short, reg's are too long). Of course the store was out of 14P's.. but I tried on a different cut and they fit! I went back to look in the women's plus area, to visit my old jeans. Everything on the shelves *everything* was too big for me!

I know exactly how you feel about no longer being a plus sized woman! I was in that neighborhood for a long time, until I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes this past January...on my brother's birthday. My highest weight was at 192, and I wore size 16-18 in slacks while going for XL and 2X shirts and blouses. After the diagnosis, I made lifestyle changes, and today I'm down to 132 pounds! I'm now wearing size 10 slacks and medium blouses and shirts.I am so loving the fact that I can say this now...

Doesn't it feel so good when you don't have to go to the Women's department for clothes?
