Smile Huge NSV over the weekend...

Saturday night I went shopping, and bought a pair of jeans and a t-shirt from the regular misses department. I'm not gonna lie, the jeans are a size 18, but for the first time in at least 10 years they're not a plus size! They buttoned and zipped comfortably, but I don't know if I'll wear them anytime soon. I'm just weird that way! But if anyone ever wonders "how much difference can losing 20-30 pounds really make?" A LOT!!

Congrats on your weightloss! And yes it can make a *BIG* difference.. you can tell I lost weight all over and I went from a plus size 22 to getting a pair of regular 18s out of the junior section in American Eagle. Imagine when we double that number.

Go Maria!! Last week I went to Old Navy (they have a huge clearance sale and they're practically giving stuff away over there) and I bought a bunch of clothes that are way too small for me. I know its crazy but I am so confident that I'm going to lose the weight and I know how great it feels to wear smaller clothes.

Congratulations on your NSV!!!
