I went shopping last night because once again I have baggy clothes. I tried a blouse on that was a size 16, a size I have not been since I was in grade 10 ( I am now 47 years old). The blouse fit and even looked great on me!!! My daughter was with me giving me high 5s!

    That is fantastic!!!

    I am hating clothese right now.............

    I recently went from a size ex-large down to a large.............

    Today I am wearing a wide strapped tank top in a size large and it fits great from the waist to the bottom of the shirt............The problem is, it is already too big up at the top from the shoulders to the boob area, it is too big........

    I am losing weight from the head down apparantly, even though my aunt told me she sees a BIG difference from the stomach and leg area, I am only seeing it up in the arm, shoulder, boob area......

    It is making my clothes fit or not fit very awkwardly.

    GOOD JOB!!!:flowerforyou: THIS IS AWESOME!

    I just got down to a size 11 in jeans which i have not been since I had my son 2 years ago! Infact a 13 fit very snug back then...It feels awesome and is sooo motivating.

    I understand what you mean when you say you get new clothes and then they don't fit I am having the same issue...

    I had gotten to a size 14 which i have 5 pair of lovely jeans in that are baggy and funny looking on me now:sad: :happy: (bitter sweet isn't it)

    I am thinking of getting just stretchy pants that will last me until i get closer to my ideal weight:bigsmile:

    find you a GOOD seamstress and let them become your BEST friend! especially when its an outfit you really like or its a new outfit and its already too big....if you get a good seamstress they can hem/take up/take in/ WAY more than they can let out...sure it costs money, but so does buying new clothes!
