Wow, can't believe I'm 110lbs down in 11 months!  I'm past my goal of 145lbs and can you believe I'm a MEDIUM...a freaking medium size!!!  my pants are size 8-9 and all my tops are a medium, I'd never have believed that this could be possible!

I was shopping in GT (Giant Tiger) for a few things on sale and I was drawn into the clothing...since my closet has shrunk from tossing clothes that don't fit very well, I've been getting most of my clothes from Value Village etc. I hate spending money on clothes...my habits from the past...But now that I'm at goal weight, I figured what the hell!

Okay two hours in GT and $200 in clothes later, lol  I got it all, underwear, socks, jeans, tops, coat, boots...And yet I found myself twice in the plus size area!!??  (old habits indeed)   I feel fantastic!

I never want to be obese again, I still wake up everyday excited to get back to my life as a thin person.  My hair loss has slowed down now, I'm hoping for a speedy recovery and that new growth isn't all grey!

On top of everything else I just opened a cupcake bakery in Barrie called Sugar City Cupcakes so I've had many "dreams come true" for me this year...I'm very gratefull :o))
CHEERS!

Congrats, Congrats!  That's really wonderful.  I just updated my own measurement goals on here to a size 10, now that (for me) it is a possibility rather than a pipe dream.   Thanks for reconfirming that it is also a possibility.  Enjoy your new stuff which is so richly deserved.
