S/C/G: 307/lost 140+ lbs/125

Default From X-Large to Medium in Victoria Secret!

LOL!

I haven't gone shopping at Victoria Secret for over 2 years. I finally decided last week for my b-day (and it didn't hurt that VS had a sale ) to buy some new panties. The last time I bought from VS, it was a size X-Large.

I still have a BIG butt, but I figured since I'm between a 16-14 size pants (from a high 24-26 size pants at 307 lbs)... I figured with a 127 lb weight loss, I should have gone down in panty sizes at VS.

So I splurged and bought a week's worth of VS panties (7 for 25 bucks ) in a size medium, thinking "well, if I don't fit into 'em now, I should pretty soon."

I just tried them on tonight... THEY... FIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And they're so comfortable!!

It was such a great pick up after being frustrated & tired at the gym & not being able to do a very good workout as I would have liked to have done earlier this morning

That is awesome. That store has always intimidated me! LOL. You have just convinced me to get my booty in there and get some of MY SEXY BACK! Well, actually I have been working on that already but I haven't been to VS in a decade!

I haven't had to get new underwear yet, but I did fit very nicely into a size 14 jeans down from an 18! That made my day, I had to stop myself from buying a whole new wardrobe I was so excited, but I'm nowhere near goal so I refuse to spend too much on clothes right now.

Congrats!

Yippee! Medium.. I can only dream. lol

I am so jealous, ya know I have NEVER bought anything from VS. I won't even go in the store. I have no clue what sizes they have. I always assumed size I was a 18 they wouldn't have anything my size. I can't wait to get down enough so I can go shopping there.

You go girl! Rock those sexy panties!

(ETA - I don't know which panties you got from VS, but I have found that Target sells their own brand of a lot of the same cute cotton styles for a great price and they hold up really well. I wore the VS ones yesterday, have the Target brand on today and can't tell a difference.)
