Topic: RE: Displaced Lightweight , what's holding me back?
Kristin, 50 pounds is a great accomplishment... you should be proud of yourself. Depression is a big thing that we all have to deal with, with you with no support where you are now... that is going to be something major. Have you checked the OK board to see if there are any support groups near you? HUGS Susan

Topic: Guess what I'm wearing???
(cross-posted from the California board, I just had to share it with my July peeps...because I think you'd understand too!) Oh my God, you won't believe what I'm wearing. Tonight I came home in a hurry and had to change clothes then leave. The size 22 jeans that I was so excited about wearing again because they were my "skinny jeans" are now so loose around my hips that I can't keep the zipper up. There's not enough of me to fill the pants and the zipper falls down! So in my rush I picked up a pair of jeans that were given to me before surgery from a friend. She gave me three bags of clothes in sizes 14-20. These clothes have been a life saver to me. I'm wearing almost all of the tops. Now I realize that I need to start trying on the pants because... ....in my rush to get out the door I put on a size 18 pair of jeans and they FIT PERFECTLY. I know it might sound weird because 18 is still a "plus" size, but I have never, ever ever worn anything smaller than a 20 in pants......ever. The other day at Old Navy I tried on a pair of 18 dress slacks and they were huge, silly me thought the pants were just labelled wrong. I'm wearing these jeans to bed. Good night

Topic: Displaced Lightweight , what's holding me back?
I need my old support, but we aren't likely to jump states so I can have that. I am in Stillwater, Ok. now. Feeling like I have no support, I desperately need it. I have lost 50 lbs, but with depression , headaches and no support that I can find- I am struggling to keep my head above water. Kristin
