Onederland and shopping!

Hello, It finally happened this week. Not only did I drop below 200 lbs, my first mini goal, but I went shopping for the first time since surgery for some clothes! Pre surgery I was wearing size 24 pants and had continued wearing all my clothes, regardless of how baggy they were. But when I saw I no longer was in the 200's I just had to celebrate! I had no idea what size jeans or pants to try on but I guessed 2 sizes lower, so I grabbed some size 20's. Nope, too big. Tried 18's, nope, still too big. I walked out of the mall with a size 16 pair of Levi's! I can't even begin to describe how wonderful that felt. It made these past 2 months of very slow weight loss seem completely worth it.

Congratulations Mary..what a wonderful accomplishment!! Embrace this moment, you worked hard to get here!! Can't wait until I join you!!!!
