Shopping for clothes

I can't believe I am a size 10! I thought it was a fluke or just a brand that ran big. I went shopping again today and every pair if size 10 pants fit me! I'm also wearing medium tops. Whose body is this, anyway? I started out as a size 22, and 2x tops. I thought I was excited when I got down to size 16. Wow. I am so happy with my sleeve! I only have about 15-20 pounds to go.

It's the best - and I still look at pants and say "these will never go on me" and then they do.  I also say, "oh they must be marked wrong or the brand runs big."  LOL - and then low and behold all pants/skirts fit in that size. Woo hoo - It never gets old.  I tried on a size 6 dress and actually ran out of the dressing room to find my daughter and yell out - it fits!!!  Enjoy your success.  :D : D

Congratulations!! It's still blowing my mind that I can shop in the non-plus size sections of the store, for tops anyway. I'm borderline on the pants. I have to really restrain myself, I've gotten a little carried away in the past week or so because I'm just screaming through sizes. It's so exciting!

Congratulations!!!  It is amazing!  I bought my first size large top yesterday.  I'm big busted...I haven't worn a large since probably high school, so I know how you feel.  I have about the same to go as you. :)
