Great work!!! :cb:

Carrie:

Just love the photo! You're beautiful, and that shot really shows how hard you've worked. Keep it up!

Carrie.. that is truly amazing!!! :cheer: wow.. how many dress sizes are you smaller now?

Just think what they'll look like when you're at goal! Which WILL Be soon!! ;)

Jane, I'm not sure. When I gained all that weight I only bought 2 pairs of elastic top pants. I'm thinking up to a size 24. Because the 22's that I orginially had were tight. (oh no!!) So I'd say I started at a size 24, and I'm down to 16's on my pants, but 12/14 on my tops. So, so far I've dropped 4 sizes on my bottoms, and 4 sizes up top. I may have dropped more, but I haven't bought newer clothes. hehe. I'm not doing that for another 20-40 lbs. I don't care how big my clothes get. Too expensive! lol

Sorry, can't help on that info Herb. I've not had it. Then again, I've no loose skin yet with flab :( True, not as much as before but still flabby. lol
