I took my 14 year old daughter shopping for a dress for her homecoming dance. While she was trying on dresses, I decided that I would look for some clothes for myself. My husband and eldest daughter have been telling me for more than a month that I need to buy new clothes, because I look like I'm wearing clowns' clothes! I have been relunctant to go shopping, because I really didn't want to waste the money knowing that I'm still working on "removing" this weight! So, first I held up a pair pants and said to my daughter that these look like they'll fit. She said, "they look too big!" That prompted me to go to the dressing room and try them on. I pulled them up, buttoned, and zipped them without "sucking" in! They are a size 20W!! When I started this journey, I was wearing a size 26/28W!! :bigsmile:
I am so encouraged by this, that I can't wait to go down to the next size (hopefully, soon!)

Thanks! And, yes I do feel amazing! I only bought the one pair of pants (and wouldn't have if they had been more than $10 :laugh: ) But, it was so worth it, just for the NSV!0 -

I know, I can't wait to go down those two additional sizes. I have NEVER in my life been able to shop in the "regular" clothing stores, so that will be an extra special NSV!!:happy:0 -

That is awesome girl and I am glad you saw the difference your new lifestyle has done for you! Keep it up and soon you will be flaunting some serious threads among other things! :drinker: :laugh:0

That is exciting! I remember when I tried on smaller pants for the first time I couldn't stop turning in all directions in the dressing room mirror, thinking "this can't be me" I had a grin from ear to ear I'm sure I looked insane leaving the room.0

yay! That is great!! It's such a great feeling putting on those smaller jeans!
The other day I took a pair of jeans and grabbed my "old" size out of habit and just scared that If I grabbed smaller they wouldn't fit but it felt good that they were indeed too big for me and I got a smaller size.
keep up the GREAT work.0
