Good Riddance LANE BRYANT!
Hello All,
I remember feeling so limited 6 months ago; when the only places we could shop for nice clothes were places like Lane Bryant, Avenue, Ashley Stewarts, and WALMART!!!
Today, I decided to go bargain shopping at Ross and automatically went to the Plus section. I found this gorgeous size 16 dress and decided I would try to squeeze into it. Who would have thought that it would turn out to be too BIG!!!! I actually ended up buying all size 14's. It was then that I realized that if I wented to shop at The Gap, Express, or The Rave; I actually could. I was nearly in tears and grins over the reality of how well I have used this tool given to me. I pray that each and every person that reads gets the opportunity to feel as elated as I do over the new me. Below is a link to my picture trail of my weight loss over the past 6.5 months. I hope you enjoy.

B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!!!!! Look at those neck bones, baby -- I can't wait -- BRAVO, BRAVO, BRAVO to you!!!!
I felt rather out of place on the first floor of Macy's, like what the heck am I doing here?!? I'm still on the cusp, so can shop either floor this month, but next month I'll be downstairs for sure
CONGRATULATIONS on joining the CENTURY CLUB -- keep a seat warm for me, would ya?!?

I have to admit I went through this too. I just hit 192 pounds today but I have been in the century club about a month now. But when I went to Pennys, or Victoria Secrets and I could buy something off the rack it was amazing to me. I just got a GAP gift certificate that I cannot wait to use because I know I can finally shop there.
When I tell people that it is an emotional experience for me to do these things and "normal" people just look at me like I am crazy. LOL
I am happy for you. I still sometimes think that I fit into those big clothes but when I hold them up to me I feel so wonderful that I am actually so much smaller.
Congrats your weight loss has been amazing.
