haha, I went shopping today with my mom to buy her an outfit for a party she had tonight, and I decided that, hey, I should try on that cute jacet, because it's on sale for 5 dollars. I tried on an Extra Large... and it was too big. So I tried on a Large... and that was too big, too. So I got to buy the Medium!

that was exciting, so we went to the mall, and looked around, and at JC Penny's, we looked for her some clothes there, and I found some jeans, just to see if they'd fit, cause they were Seven Jeans... the brand, normally priced at 50 to 100 bucks for 24... so, why not, right? Problem was, they were 9's. Well... no harm, no foul. I tried them on and they fit NICELY.

so, elated, I went to pay for them and the girl looked at them a minute, and then rang them up, typed some things in and said. "Your total is 3.21" I went "..what?" She said "yeah, they were on sale for 2.97"

SO excited. Today was such a good day, and it was my cheat day, too, and so even after eating badly and feeling kind of bloated, I fit into those jeans. It was nice. Yay!

anyone else have success stories? Share the love!

    wow...those are some ridiculous bargains. hahaha

    I am so happy that you had a fabulous Non scale victory. Just makes you feel so great when you fit into those smaller clothes.

    I used to go shopping every couple of days, it would constantly remind me of my progress and the positive changes I was making. I would never buy anything, but whenever I think I am starting to head off track I go try on some clothes:wink:

    That's awesome. I hope I find some good deals when I am in need of smaller sizes. I bet you were jumping up and down in the dressing room... I know I would!!!
