Default I'm Wearing A Size 16!!!!

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!!! My old size 18's were too baggy so I went to the store to try on some 16' and they fit perfectly. They look so good and I'm bragging to everyone.

Hey Hey! Fantastic news! I soooo remember my excitement when I reached size 16! I don't know what it is about this size, but it sort of reminds me of being on a rollercoaster and this is the point where you are at the very top, just waiting to plunge to the bottom (represented by the goal weight). I'm in a comfortable size 14 now, and mostly 12s. Gads, writing it out brings back all my memories of just wanting to be a size 12 and how exciting it was to go lower and lower from my starting point of 24-26.

You'll get there - just keep up the GREAT work.

Best, kitty
