My husband decided to treat me to a new outfit today to celebrate my hard work and he told me to pick any store I wanted. I decided to go to a Rue21 which is a small clothing store with more trendy choices. We went to the store started looking around and my husband pulled me to the jeans wall. He looked at me and said hey you can but jeans here now and they even have sizes bigger than you. I looked up and started crying:blushing: . The last time we went to that store the biggest size they had was a 14 and I was in a 16 and so depressed that I was "too big" for that store.. Today I walked out of the store with size 7/8:drinker: . I know I am a dork!

I know if I can do it anyone I can! Just stick with it and never give up!:flowerforyou:

    Congrats thats so awesome!!!

    That's one of the things I'm looking forward to most, shopping with friends and family has always been kinda depressing since I can't wear anything in the stores they shop in (and we don't often go in stores that carried my size because no one else needed to go there) I can't wait until shopping is fun again :)

    Hurray for you, you worked hard and you are now rewarded. Shedding extra pounds and dropping dress size is very hard, you have accomplished a lot!
