    I have recently noticed that even though I re-upped my supply of pants-that-fit in January, they are now diminished once again, which means I have to KEEP SHOPPING for more, even though I wasn't finished finding what I needed the last time. :grumble: I literally only have 4 pairs I can pick from for my work wardrobe....

    I'm getting that way too! I have only one pair of jeans and one pair of shorts that fit me, and all of my work pants are starting to look like mc hammer pants :grumble:

    I notice when I wear one of the 2 size 8 pants that I own......and fit perfect.........no one mentions weight loss.

    But when I come in with my size 10s falling off my butt, they say WOW you are really losing weight!

    I have black and gray slacks for work and I alternate tops.

    I just bagged up 6 size 12 suits and am bringing them to Woman in Distress tomorrow.

    I have got to stop looking in the mirror every where I go or my friends will think I am conceited!!:laugh: :laugh:

    Any abused woman shelters always need clothes. I had a very close friend who needed these services. I have these great suits that will be good for job interviews. I have been holding them in fear.

    The fear is gone now. I KNOW I will never go back to that size again.

    I LOVED trying on the clothes and looking all saggy baggy....WOOT!! :drinker:

    I happen to have bought a good pair of leather sandels 2 weeks before I started this change. I loved the way they fit and finally had a pair of higher shoes I could feel comfortable in.

    I put them on 4 weeks later and my foot slid to the front:noway:

    I guess it is from all the sodium and not moving my body so the water exits!

    WOot to smaller shoes :flowerforyou:

    (and bras:blushing: )

    smaller bras are awesome!! here's to no longer being a DD!! :drinker:

    Can we get a momment of silence..... JK :heart: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Funny how things work, huh? People really notice my weight loss when I wear clothes that fit. The baggy (huge) ones just make me look fatter. I went from a sz 18/20 to a 10/12! I had to buy new exercise clothes yesterday cuz my pants almost made me trip on the treadmill. I went into walmart, sure I was going to buy LARGE in everything. Turns out, I am a MEDIUM! I am still in shock!

    ... that I have to do laundry a lot more often since I'm now going through a regular outfit (or two :laugh: ) for the day, and also work out clothes. Showering at least twice a day means a higher water bill, going through shampoo and soap more often... but it's all worth it :bigsmile:

    Same here. I only have two pairs of cycling shorts (because they're so expensive), so I'm doing laundry every other day :tongue:

    I was purchasing new capris and took what I thought was a size 11 into the dressing room. I got it on but it was so tight. I sort of freaked out and then looked at the tag. It had been misplaced...it was a size 4! I started looking at size 8's and that what I bought!!!

    Janie that is wonderful. I hope you back is 100% soon. I bet the fact you were in shape, eating better and exercising more is why it is getting better so fast!
