So, I started this a little over three months ago, at size 16W and XXL. Today I went to the mall, and found myself fitting in size 10 pants and M shirts! I'm not used to wearing anything close to M, so I tried different brands/ styles just to make sure it wasn't just that brand or that particular shirt... Nope, I really did get smaller.

It's so weird... It feels like I didn't get smaller, all the cloths in the world got bigger instead. I look at size XXL shirts and can't believe I used to fit in those. They look so huge now! And S shirts no longer look tiny. Hopefully I can fit in those soon.

Also, I was walking my dog (120lbs) last night. We ran into this guy on the street; he looked at my dog and said, "you're walking THAT? But you're so tiny!" My short stature probably had a lot to do with being called tiny, as I still have a lot to lose. I don't think anyone ever called me tiny back when I was 186lbs, though, so that's got to count for something :)

    That's so awesome for you! That's gotta be a great feeling. I'm hoping to be into a small someday too. :) Also, strangely enough I go to school in Bergen County and am also in the 5 foot range, haha. It's a small world. :P
