WOW moment!
Well, last weekend I went to Catherine's. I needed 2 pairs of work pants. Anyway, the place was packed so I just picked out 2 pairs that were a 0X. I got them home and they were too big in the legs! So, back I went today and returned them. I decided that I would checkout Kohls and see what size I was in. I am now in 16's for my bottoms!! I can't beleive it! So, I bought a pair of Lee jeans, Dockers, and Gloria Vanderbilts all in a size 16! Anyway, I just wanted to share.

Hi Robin.....I, too, had your WOWWWW moment a week or so ago. I had on baggy pants so with a friend's insistance I went to the store and after only a million years of going to the Women's Dept., I found myself picking up a size 1 X pants....went to the dressing room and I was swimming in them. I immediately thought...HMMMMM I'll try the Misses Dept. (FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE MY SURGERY ON 6/6/06) and took a pair of XL pants to the dressing room.....HMMMMMM still too big.....went and found a size L and still too big......I walked out of the store with a MEDIUM and was thrilled. I wanted to call everyone I knew. They were a stretchy weekender type of material but still I was happy....very happy. Then I found a regular pair of 16's the next week! Double Yahoo! Sooooo congrats to US , Robin....keep up the GREAT work...take care of yourself and BE HAPPY!!!
