Default Medium NSV for me

Last winter my daughter gave me 2 of her dress shirts that she said were too big for her. I tried them on and they were too tight. I tried them again a couple months ago and although they buttoned there were gaps showing and I knew they were still too small. Tonite, I tried one on with a skirt that I am wearing to a wedding shower and it fit perfect. My DH and step-daughter thought it looked great. I was so happy. I haven't worn a medium shirt since about high school. Yeah!

Wow, that must feel awesome! fitting into smaller clothes has started to feel more satisfying to me than seeing the numbers go down on the scale.

Thanks everyone. I had told her when she gave them to me that I would never be able to wear them. All my other shirts are a large but it made me happy to be able to wear these.

Yay! That IS an awesome NSV. I'm waiting for a few more pounds to come off so I can fit into a whole host of 1X shirts friends have given me.
