I cant even tell you the last time I wasnt in clothes that had an X or a 2 in front of the size. Maybe mid high school? Well, I bought a new pair of jeans and a top yesterday - size 16 jeans and size L shirt. Whaaaat!?! :bigsmile: And I got them at a regular store too - adios Lane Bryant and your ridiculous prices and bejeweled clothing!

I started this in Jan wearing a size 26. I almost cant believe it sometimes. :noway: Oh, and I feel like a total hottie rocking my new jeans! Thats new too! Feels AWESOME!

    There's only 2 more times you won't mind a "2" in your clothes... it's when you're a "12" and when you're a "2"

    Amazing!! I remember back when I said goodbye to Lane Bryant and *shudder* Fashion Bug. It felt so good! According to those stores overweight women are all also 55+ years old. Congratulations! This is a huge victory!! I'm so proud of you!! <3

    I love that! I finally dropped out of 20s. I had gotten up to them last summer, when I said that was the last straw. I'm back into 18s, but my tops are still XL, and my weight is so stinking close to being under 200. I can't wait until my weight doesn't start with a 2! WTG!

    That is AWESOME and I know exactly how you feel. I was a 26 and am now a comfortable 16. I can't buy at shirt at the plus size store anymore, though I have to be honest and say that I still have a hard time finding pants I like at the regular size stores.

    It is amazing how you can feel so totally different and how much your confidencei in yourself is boosted! Keep it going!!!!
