Looks like, over the last 8 months, I've gone from a 3X to a 16!

(This was at Sears Canada. Generally around here, sizes 16 and down are on the regular racks. Occasionally they'll shove in some 18s. Plus starts around 18-20).

Skipped Laura's Plus and went right into the regular store, where I discovered that I was now a Large to XL!

And they look great now! I mean, if/when I drop a few more pounds, they won't be swimming on me yet. But no 'need a bodyslimmer' or 'I'll just have to stay away from bright light/not stand sideways'. I'm really a 16/L/XL. Wow.

    How wonderful that must feel! Can't wait until I can say the same! It's been decades since I shopped in regular sizes.

    Awesome! Good for you! I went to J Jill yesterday for the sales and 20% off for my birthday month. I didn't feel like trying clothes on so I just bought xl....I had been in 1x and 2x. I bought a pretty shirt in L that I hoped would fit at end of summer....tried them all on and the dresses were too big and the shirt fit just right. Taking dresses back today.
