Default Woot new pants and bra :D

My first mini goal in a month, I tried a size 18 pant today and they fit Not only that, I've dropped a cup in the bra too and finally able to wear garments from victoria's secret! Usually women don't like losing cup sizes, but for me, it was the most wonderful thing in the world to finally have a choice of wearing pretty bras that aren't from lane bryant! Does anyone else feel this way too?

congratz on your mini goal. I know I can't wait to shop in the regular size sections of stores, and the "sexy lingerie" shoppes. There's a lot more selection in the plus size now then there used to be, but most of the stuff I want to wear goes to large or xl max.

Congrats! That is awesome. I wish I could shop at VS. I've only managed to go down to a 32F or 30G. No VS for me until I am anorexic I'm afraid.

Good job! Sexy lingerie is something that I was just thinking about! I want to have a plunging bra that I don't fall out of!

It certainly does feel good! My first bra without under padding in years, I'm gonna wear it today to try it out! It sounds like you ladies are enjoying the spoils of sexy lingerie as well!

Congrats!!!! I just bought some new fall/winter clothes because my clothes don't fit anymore. But to further motivate myself, I bought 2 pairs of jeans a size smaller that I WILL fit into come end of September at the LATEST!

LOL, no not really painful, you kind of get used to it after a few decades. Actually I don't look that big, if my measurements around the band were a 36 I'd probably be able to wear a D cup without issue.

Congrats--size 18 means you are out of the 20s forever! And VS bras---ooh la la!
I totally know what you mean about not being able to buy bras anywhere else until a few years ago, the Ross's where I lived started carrying some really cute plus size bras and panties. Still...having more options would be nice!
