After getting on the scale today-- And thanks for the Sunday weigh in guys-- it's great to have the support. I realized I have hit my second short term goal-- and have not been this low in a few years. I had promised myself that everytime I hit a meaningful goal I would buy myself one item. So off I went this afternoon to the Woman's department of Lord & Taylor. I am not a big loser like some of you out there-- so I thought it wouldn't be a big deal-- Guess what? I am a 2X top down from a 3X. And I am down a size on the bottoms. My point is, even if your not dropping a lot of weight, your body is changing-- if your exercising, you could be losing inches as the fat coverts to a bit of muscle. I decided not to buy any pants or suits, because they would be a temporary thing. I got a short-sleeve pale blue sweater (2X!!!), because I figure even if it gets big, I can still wear it for a while. Keep up the great work everyone!

Andrea- Congrats on the great shopping experience!!! Sunday weigh in is a true blessing for me also!!! Just to share, I also had to go shopping this weekend. I am down both in tops and bottoms!! I didn't buy too much either, knowing that this stage was temporary until I get my exercising a little further along. Congrats also on the weight loss for this week ****Happy Dance**** for you!! Have a great evening and a terrific week!! Anjanette

YOU GO GAL! CONGRATS - WHAT A GREAT FEELING!! I separated my closet I have all my 22s on the top rack> ready to move out when I need to toss. The bottom are a range of sizes from 14- 20's. Scary though - I wear suits now... and all the suits are 22's.. I can button the blazers and cover the looseness in the pants.. Not sure how long I can go.. BUT I LOVE THE IDEA OF SHOPPING!
