I am down to 179.5 this morning--AND--drumroll please--my size 14 capris are usually tight enough I have to wiggle in a little--this morning. . .slipped them on and zipped and buttoned without a wiggle! I am going to shop a bit this morning after dropping DD off and try on some clothes--may see if I can find a couple of sleeveless tops in my size--I think a L!!!! I have two in XL but one is getting very faded from constant wearing! I am so excited--I am out of the 180's!!!!!

Congrats huskers! It's addicting dropping sizes. I'm looking forward to my snug 18's to go to comfortable then dropping down to the 16's. No 16's in my closet tho because I've been in 18's and way above for nearly 15 years. Happy shopping, I can see you smiling from here, LOL

Woohoo! I LOVE it! Great job!! Good for you!! I'm with you, finally dropping, gradually, into nicer fitting clothes. I just got to 172 and my 14's are all loose and I can even pull them off without unzipping/buttoning them!

Size 12, here we come!!!!!

Yeah!!!

dropping sizes feels so good! I went from an 18 down to a 10.. and the other day I bought a new skirt, and had to get it in a size 8.. felt like I'd won the lottery or something!.. lol.

Just wanted to drop in and say CONGRATS on your 14's. I stopped in yesterday my clothes were looking pretty bad I kept putting off on buying too many. I don't want a lot of them sitting around after I have reached my goal. So when I did stop yesterday>>>> I had to get a 12 and a Large in the shirts I bought. SOOOOO. exciting.

Congrats!!!!.
I am right where you are. I just went shopping for clothes for the first time in maybe two years. I was thrilled to find that I could get my body into size 14s...YAHOO.

I bought a few shorter skirts than I normally wear and a few size medium tops. WOW...shopping with a normal size body is fun. I didn't have to wiggle or anything...every size 14 fit...in fact the 14 skirt I have on this morning is a bit loose...maybe I should have gotten a 12??

CONGRATs on all the great work....its a great feeling to see our sizes/inches/scale change.

((((CLAPPING))))
