The reason i started to loose weight was because my size 22 pants were too tight on me. Well, I can't believe it, but i was able to buy size 18 pants today. They are the exact same pants (same brand, same pant) just smaller. I am so happy and the next goal is size 16 out of the plus size section. I can't wait. I don't remember the last time i bought clothes that were not plus size.

    Good for you!
    Beware, though! When you get into those "regular" sizes there are soooo many more choices than you've been faced with before! I was there once & it was overwhelming! I can hardly wait to be there again!:bigsmile:

    Congrats on the smaller britches! I'm going to have to do the same thing soon - right now, all my weight is coming off of my a**, which means a perpetual case of "Plumbers Butt"...ha ha!
