    Looking great girl and congrats! It is amazing what one little pair of jeans can do to our outlook and our self-esteem. Keep it up! That is great!

    I remember when I lost weight and lost 40lbs years ago how I had never been a size 12 in my adult life and got down to those jeans. I am now a size 18-20 and am striving for that goal of smoothly putting on smaller size of jeans.

    Inspirational!

    Congratulations! I'm very happy for you.

    And I would take that for a compliment for sure! As a mother of three boys myself, I take them were I can get them!

    That is the best news today! Congrats and I do know how good it feels to fit into a 16. I can rock them myself now. I started out in a size 22W last year. It is a hard journey but one that can be conquered. Keep making the right choices and watch it add up to the success that you desire. Thanks for sharing your story and I am so glad that the sales lady was there to encourage you too. Rock on!

    That's great! I went into the store and when I tried on the dress that is on the right side of my profile picture, I cried because it was an extra small, it fit really and looked nice on me and I felt so pretty I got a little teary-eyed in the dressing room.

    dang! That was an awsome story, you are so very cool and have amazing courage. It would be soooo easy to just say screw it and eat yourself to death. It is crystal clear that you my friend are a fighter.

    Keep it up, you will be in those 12's in know time.

    I can't believe you actually brought a tear to my eye.

    Great job!!!!

    I am so overwhelmed at ya'll's support! I don't think my feet have touched the ground yet! It was the mid-80s here the other day and I went to get all my "skinny" clothes out of storage to see what fit. It was hot and humid and yet I wore my new jeans! I was so excited going through box after box....until I started trying on things....ummmm everything is TOO BIG! I ended up with 2 pr jeans that wont fit me by the fall and a couple of sweaters. So I guess I really do get to go to the thrift store now!
