Huge NSV!!
I can finally fit into an 11 (10 in even size stores)! It's almost unfathomable because I don't ever remember being this low in weight or clothing size.
It's crazy almost because I was always an overweight kid and I never paid attention to clothing size back then (except I DID want to be in smaller clothes). When I did start paying attention as a kid I was in the highest size, a 16. When I did my crash diet at 13 I only got down to 13 and went on a long binge and got back up to 18 and then beyond so this is amazing to me.
I have a cute little size 11 skirt that fits me GREAT but no where to wear it to ! Thank you all for all your support here!! It's what got me started and kept me going (and will keep me going)!

Yay! What a fantastic feeling! Wear the skirt anywhere - even just around the house - you deserve to wear it!

That's really sweet and it means a lot to me !! Congrats on your current loss and I wish the best in your journey!
I bought a digital camera and I'm going to have to find a way to take a picture of my before pics so when I do that I'll get pics up.

Since I don't have a scanner, I also had to take a pic of my before, and what I did was take the pic at a distance (so it isn't blurry) and then I uploaded it, transferred it to Paint, zoomed in on just me, cropped it, saved it into photobucket and then resized it.
I hope that made sense, if it didn't, tell me and I'll try to explain better. I'm almost ready to pass out . . .
Oh, and congratulations on your size 11!!! I think that's where I'll be when I reach goal. I bet you look fantastic!!!

I am SOOOOO happy for you!!! I know what an incredible feeling that is and I can picture the smile on your face. I am really looking forward to seeing the pictures.
I sometimes wish that I had done something about my weight when I was younger, but I have to accept that things happen for a reason, and at least I DID something, even if it took to my early 40s to 'wake up'.
You have definitely put a smile on my face, to make a lovely start to my day.
Take care,
Zelma

Thanks so much all; *every* one of you are sweet and it means so much because without the support I don't think I could have done it!!
You all have done so great in your journeys ! You've all made me so happy! I wasn't having the best day until I came here .
Btw! I just posted my pics here!
Harpo -- thank you!! I'm glad
Zelma -- I've said things like that to myself, "why didn't I do that before" .. but what you said is true.. you *did* do it and you have done so well!
I'm almost in tears here!
