NSV - finally a UK Size 10 (pic)

Hello everyone! I found out a few weeks ago that I might have shrunk out of my size 12s and am well on the way to calling myself a UK size 10 (equivalent to US size 6).

Today is the day I can happily call myself a size 10!

I went into a shop and tried on three size 10 clothes and they all fit perfectly. One of my purchases was a formal evening dress (in size 10 - can't get over this!)

Here's a picture of me in it now.

P.S. for perspective... I'm down from a size 16-18 when I weighed 191 pounds. I now weigh 148.5 pounds. It's so possible!

Hope all your days are going well and you're all reaching your calorie goals :)

    I do need shoes! Since I've lost weight, most of my shoes are now too big for me... lots of fat came off my feet.
