Talking Laaa La La... Off I Go....
...in the pair of jeans I just dug off of the "too small" rack AND zipped up without even lying on the bed to do so; along with a top which was also in the too small stuff. LOL it is old and not something I even really planned to wear again but I AM because I CAN and am only going to Safeway LOL

Fun! I haven't tried on any old stuff, mostly because I don't really have any! We've moved several times and most of my old stuff went to Salvation Army/Goodwill. I figured I'd never get back into them, so someone should get some use out of them. The few things I kept ('cause I just loved 'em) are soooooo outdated, I don't think I'd wear them, even if I could! Hello, Dynasty shoulderpads!

Anyway, congrats on finding "new" clothes!

LOL yah love it! Of course most of the stuff is stil too small but I am hoping to be able to wear a lot of it on my cruise.

Lena I am just the opposite... I was selling a lot on eBay but keeping all the nice stuff I found at dirt cheap prices that I really wanted to get into even if I felt there was no hope. So I have more in the too small stuff than I do in stuff I can wear!!! And also, I gained weight so quickly when I had the thyroid surgery and related health stuff.

That's great Misti. It's like getting new clothes all over again.
Good for you. Keep up the good work.
I haven't had the courage to try on any of my too small clothes yet. Maybe when I lose another 10-15 pounds.

Thanks for all the encouragement! What is neat is my stomach is so big compared to legs and butt that I can never wear zip up pants... yuck! So this was special to get into them and they FIT nicely.

LOL actually I am not strutting much today as I was off work with a bad cold; didn't want to go in contagious. So I am feeling really draggy... but it did feel nice to wear them LOL

And Sassy, Amy and Jayde thanks for the encouragement! And Amy, it will happen soon! Just keep up the good work!
