NSV Today

I've lost 29 pounds total since February 1. 17 since I started using MFP almost 40 days ago. Anyway - I want to lose another 30-40 lbs so I've been putting off buying new clothes. But, I'm a professional and I can't be wearing baggy clothes and pulling up on my bra all day long. It just looks bad.

Today, I went to NY & Co (my favorite clothing store for work clothes) and while I've always worn a 16 and usually a XL size shirt, today I fit into size 12 pants and bought 1 medium sized shirt, 1 large shirt and 1 size 12 dress!

Additionally, my 38 D cup bra had gotten too big (kind of stinks that we women lose a lot of our weight in our best assets). So I was re-fitted at VS and I'm now wearing a 36C!

    Congrats on the new clothes!! 7 years ago (when I was 26/28) I used to shop at Lane Bryant...went in one day (after losing weight) and the lady at the counter (who knew me over the years) said "Jamie, I don't have anything to fit you anymore. Head downstairs to NY and CO OUR sister store and shop" I looked at her like WHOA I'm being kicked out of Layne Bryant lol it was the happiest day of my life hahahahaha....enjoy your weight loss journey and congrats.

    That's awesome that you got kicked out of Lane Bryant! Lol!!

    Thanks all for the cheers.

    I was modeling the clothes for my husband this evening and - wow - wearing clothes that actually fit me made me look a lot smaller! Great confidence boost again!! I've been wearing bunched up baggy pants for a month or so and these thinner clothes really make a difference. My coworkers and customers tomorrow will be surprised. I was!

    Thanks again!
