Have you ever bought a dress on sale that you knew you couldn't fit into? I did that last year. I paid $15 for the cutest little black/white/yellow cocktail dress in a size 10, I was a size 12/14 last year so I was being hopeful. Well, that "goal" dress FITS!!!!
Here's the pics:

June 13, 2012 - wearing my size 10 "goal" dress. I now realize that I'm going to have to adjust my goals a bit lower because I'm not done yet!

    Enjoy that cute dress now while it still fits... soon it's going to be too big for you, and you don't want to mess around with a strapless dress that's too loose! ;-)

    You look great and have worked hard. Try staying at your goal weight for a couple of months. You might find your body will adjust a little and you'll be fine! Great job!!

    That's such a wonderful idea! I think I might just do that...I actually kinda did with bikini bottoms. I bought 2 sizes, and now I'm in the smaller one. You look gorgeous!!!
