For the first time EVER....
 

CONGRATS!!! Theres nothing better than fitting into smaller pants :D

Congratulations!!!! That's fabulous!!!! :carrot:

Congratulations!

I can't wait til I can wear a 16. I wear 18 now but that is sure better than the 24's that were getting too tight.

Congratulations! You're doing great! What a great feeling, going down a size....can't wait until I achieve that goal! (Daydreaming about it now...)

Thank you all!! I'm totally excited. I've been going around the office telling everyone!! lol I feel like I'm glowing! Silly to some, but it means the WORLD to me!!

Lori & Granny - You will get there!!! Keep it up and reach for the stars!! :hug:

Awesome! I know how great it feels to be 16, and how much better it will get at 14 and lower!

Think of being able to go to the mall and just buy a pair of jeans right off the shelf, that's my fantasy! lol.

I'm with you there! There are so many stores I want to buy clothes from but they don't carry Plus sizes! I'll also be excited not to HAVE to shop at Torrid and Lane Bryant!

That is great! I am right where you are. But some brands are still 18, but most are 16. My NYDJ;s are getting a little big for me, but not going to buy another pair of $100.00 jeans till I lose all the weight.

Janis, that's exactly where my mind is. I'm going to overcome my Thrift Store fear to buy cheap clothes for that size! It's exciting though!!

Wow - you've hit so many of your goals! It's great to read this....it encourages me to not give up and to keep going towards my goal of losing weight. Thank you for the reminder that there are real rewards for us if we just stick with it!

Torrid has some gorgeous clothes, but having the option of NOT going there = freedom, imho. Besides, I always thought Lane Bryant had old lady looking clothes.
