Default Thank you
Finally after almost 30 pounds gone, I took my measurements this morning and went clothes shopping. I have not clothes shopped for a long time, so I was kind of excited. Anyway, I bought two size 6 tops & a pair of size 8 pants. It might sound silly, but I was getting a little emotional in the fitting room trying on those clothes.

I don't post often because I don't think I am very articulate, but I do read as many posts every time I visit. I want to thank everyone here in 3FC, without your support and inspiring stories, I don't think I can ever come this far. Still a long way to go, but I know I will get there.

I most certainly found you to be very articulate. You expressed yourself beautifully. I know EXACTLY what you mean about getting emotional in the dressing room. It's happened to me quite a few times since I started my journey. I had overwhelming feelings of joy as I was first fitting into "regular" sized clothing (I actually sobbed like a baby if I recall) and then again as they sizes were getting smaller and smaller.

Congratulations on a magnificent achievement. And please, don't hesitate to post more often.
