Talking HA! SUCCESS in a DRESS! :)
Hi all,

I'm so happy today! I may be maintaining at the moment, but this is still a success. It's success in a dress!

You see, I work in a retail store, and I bought this dress when I first started working there about two months ago. I bought it in an XL size, the largest, and it fit me like a glove. There was only one problem with this dress; one of the button holes was sewn shut. I'm no sewer, not good at crafty things, so I left the dress for my mom to handle.

My birthday came around (one month later) and I asked her to fix the dress and give it to me for my birthday She did.

That leads me up to today, the day in which I am actually putting on the dress (I kinda forgot about it). In two months I have managed to go from 168 lbs to 150.5 lbs. I put on the dress and... IT'S TOO BIG!!!! By at least one size, maybe two!

Now you can see why I'm happy

Thumbs up
mskrystalg, Aww what a cute little baby you have as your avatar!!!

Heehee I belted the dress so I don't look "frumpy"! Only problem now is that it's big in the chest area and kinda low cut, so I had to wear a tank top underneath it. HAHA! I haven't had a problem lately with my boobs being too small! Unheard of! Now, the magic moment would be me stepping on the scale and it saying something like 149 lbs....
