Coolest moment ever! Today I went to Mr. Big and Tall to buy a shirt. I had the clerk measure my neck, (because my shirts are all fitting loose now). To my surprise, I'd lost a full two inches around my neck. The clerk said, "Dude! You don't have to have to shop here anymore. You can go to Walmart."

These are the moments that make it worth it!!!

    First time I did this, I cried in the changing rooms.

    Enjoy the moment. It's one of the best bits of weightloss!

    I had that same moment at The Avenue not too long ago. My first reaction was panic, and then tears. That is an amazing milestone! Congratulations! Great Job! :happy:

    Congrats! I know that feeling was awesome. I can't wait for the day I can shop in a regular store and buy shirts on sale for $3 and $5 and jeans for $15 lol. Right now I have to shop plus sizes and for decent clothes it costs a pretty penny. I guess bc of all that extra material. I think I just gained some new motivation from reading this post.

    Congrats, it's an amazing feeling! I just donated two large trash bags of my "former" clothes. I REFUSE to hang on to them out of fear that I'll return to that size. I'm never going back there!

    That's wonderful! Ive recently graduated out of "women's" sizes and into "misses"....so I know how you feel! There stores are FULL of clothes that I can actually wear! Its exhilarating and Scary st the same time....and potentially expensive!

    This feeling is sooo nice. When I go into a store, I automatically steer towards the "full sized" section. Only recently do I have to catch myself and say "helo, wait! I can look anywhere in the store!" The list goes on. I can shop at Urban Outfitters, Forever 21, -- I can buy a "cute" bra and not a skin colored, boring, 42DDD bra. Congrats on such a wild improvement!! Enjoy strutting your stuff around Wall-y word! <3
