Shopping NSV!! Woo Hoo!

I went shopping with my hubby yesterday. I normally despise trying on clothes. I get hot and sweaty in a dressing room and normally hate what I see in the mirror. Granted I have lost 14lbs and many inches and I wanted to believe that my size 12/14 shorts are getting a little baggy! While in stores, I kept grabbing size 10's thinking that they would be okay. My hubby would walk behind me and grab a size 8, saying "Just try these. The 10's look too big!" I didn't want to argue with him, so I just said "Fine, I will humor you and try them on." I was so nervous!!
I am proud to say that the size 10's were ginormous and the size 8's were loose fiiting. I wasn't going to try a 6, but I was beside myself that I am possibly between a size 8 and a 6. I haven't been this size since my daughter was born almost 9 years ago. I also tried on some tops, shirts, dresses in my favorite store, which I was always a large to extra large because "my girls" were always too big to fit. I walked out of there with many mediums!! I am so excited!!
I am half way to where I want to be with my weight, but I can finally see and realize that there has been progress. YAY!! :bigsmile:

That's an awesome NSV!! Congrats!
My hubby is the opposite - he hates to see me get sad when clothes don't fit, so he is always trying to encourage me to take a size larger into the dressing room "just in case":laugh:
I'm super happy for you. I agree that you should try the 6 next time too. I've been too scared to see if I'll fit my next size down the last couple of times I went to the store, but I'm gonna go for it next time...
It's so great when we beat the scale with these victories!!! You should be super proud of all your hard work paying off. Congrats!0 -
