I went shopping yesterday & kept reaching for the size 20's. I bought a pair of capris that are a size large. I know in my head that I'm not a size 20 anymore, but I still see myself that way. So I thought I would post some progress pics. It helps me to look at my pictures because then I can see a difference. Most of my clothes are size 16's now but I did buy a pair of stretch jeans that are a 14. They are tight but they do button. lol

Here is me at 270lbs. My heaviest weight. I was a very tight size 20. I should have been a 22 but I refused to buy bigger than a 20. Size 3X shirt. This is in July 2009. The baby I'm holding was 11 months in that pic & is now almost 3 but It's one of the best pics I can find showing how big I was. I was also 270lbs May 2010 after I had my last child & started my weight loss journey.
