Bye Bye Size 16s!

I cleaned out my closet and put all my size 16s in the give-away bag. I did not buy any size 14s but was waiting until I got into a size 12 for more clothes. I think it is going to be too expensive to buy each and every size along the way. Because the 16s are two sizes to big, I felt safe getting rid of them. No looking back!!

I hated some of those clothes! When you wear a size 16, you don't always dress for cuteness. Much of the time, I would chose stuff that didn't make me look too fat. So, BYE BYE size 16!

    I envy that. If I felt like that, I may never have tried to lose the weight!

    Congratulations! I was a 16 for years. Getting rid of those clothes felt amazing. You'll be in that 12 in no time. :)
