Another WOW moment...

I went shopping at Kohl's today to get some of those new, sexy Candies jeans (they are awesome!). I ended up trying on a lot of different clothes, and I ended up buying size 9! I absolutely could not believe it. I honestly don't EVER remember buying a size 9. It is the BEST feeling to shop in the Junior's department and actually be able to pretty much choose whatever you want. No more looking for the XXL and above. Heck, I was wearing 22/24 when I started this journey in December. Just had to share. I am holding steady at 155 (want to get to my surgeon's goal of 137). If I stay here, I will be fine with it. This was the best decision I've ever made, and I don't regret it for a minute. Hope everyone had a great weekend! Hugs, Chrissy 257 / 155 / 137 -102 lbs. 18 lbs. until goal

Great Job Chrissy, I am so happy for you! Heather Sizemore

What an inspiration! I can't wait till 18 pounds to goal (I have 30). We are only 8 pounds different in our ultimate goals...can I ask, how tall are you? Another silly question, I have never been thin enough to buy juniors, but finally got my first pair of 13 junior pants. Here it is.. what is the difference between regular and junior sizes, since I could never wear either, I never bothered to figure it out. Now I gotta know!!! Congrats!!!! You are doing great, Cheryl

Hi Cheryl! That's awesome that you are only 30 pounds from goal! You will get there; I know you will! Ya know, I was never sure what the difference in regular vs. junior sizes was. I searched the 'net and found this, but it's kinda cryptic: http: //www.astm.org/cgi-bin/SoftCart.exe/DATABASE.CART/REDLINE_PAGES/D6829.htm?E+mystore To answer your other question, I am 5'7". Hugs, Christine

Hi Christine, Thanks for writing back, how did you find that info on juniors sizes??? Great job! Now I don't have to be ignorant anymore!!! Have a super day! Cheryl

Chrissy, How exciting! I haven't tried the junior department yet, I guess I neet to get my butt in there and do so. How wonderful you must feel! Keep up the great work! Candy 266/165/1?? -101

Me neither - I like being able to actually choose what I like instead of what fits...
