Hi!
Well, Mike and I decided we needed to shop for some clothes, especially pants. (We both wear Dockers for work and we wear pretty much the same size and men's usually fit me just as well as womens, so we share) So we went shopping yesterday and Dockers now have these pants that have a hidden elastic component that supposedely fits you better--I think it really probably makes a 36 a 37 and a 38 a 39. . .BUt anyway, the 36's fit me!! Mike was more comfy in the 38's but I found 2 pairs of 36's with the same kind of "adjustment" of some Lee khakis for 8.50 each!! I also got a new top at Lane Bryant in a size 14-16!!
I realize that the things I got are probably both things that may run a little big for size, but I can't remember the last time I could fit into any 36's for pants or a 14-16 for a top!!

I'm just pretty excited.

Thanks for reading.

That's so cool, Amy! Congrats to you!

Just keep on keeping on, and imagine how many more of these moments you'll have.

Amy,

That is too cool! I think fitting into the smaller clothes is one the best things of losing weight. I think it helps so much with your self-confidence and self-image.

I went clothes shopping in August and September and was thrilled to be able to buy clothes much smaller than I used to. Now, if I wear my old clothes (as PJ's), it looks so stupid and big.

Yeah!
