Default new outfit, new size
I was at the mall the other day and saw the cutest outfit from Maurices. I tried on a medium blouse with a large over vest thing. The outfit was big so the sales woman called downstate to have more sizes shipped up. I went back yesterday and to my surprise I fit in a SMALL vest and blouse! And the blouse was still a little roomy. I never could have imagined fitting in a small. It's the greatest feeling.

It is exciting! I'm just starting to get used to being in smaller sizes.

Another post asked "what is your top ten things you'll be looking forward to when Goal is Achieved" - that feeling of fitting into a smaller size than expected would be one of 'em...not because of the size but the affirmation of commitment to ourselves that we weren't expecting...

Way Cool! Congratulations and I bet you look great!

Oh man, when I went shopping a couple weeks ago and was down a shirt size and TWO pant sizes it was the BEST feeling! you should definitely feel great about yourself! A little ego boost like that goes a long way!
