So, i went to the mall to buy a dress for a friends graduation party and I was worried I won't see anything that will look good on me and all this while I never measured myself neither do I buy clothes because I've been thinking I was a size 16 or 18 and I wont look good especially since I'm 5'2 and haven't lost much in a while. So in JC penny and Macy's I tried a size 16 and 18, they were too big. So I tried a size 14 and it was still big then I tried size 12 and lo and behold, It was my exact size. I couldn't believe it because the scale isn't moving as I was hoping. So I bought nice clothes today and I am more confident than ever. I used to be a size 22 but not any more. I can't believe I'm a size 12 an no longer XL or L . I'm so happy and so grateful to God. Yay me!

    Congrats!! I'd gotten a dress in November that I tried to wear for a baptism on Sunday and found that was too big too. I hear you - scale not really moving as I'd like, but I'm happy with the inches going away. :)
