Gotta share...

Today I bought my first pair of jeans in probably close to 10 years. I'm still not super impressed with the size I had to buy, but at least I can find jeans in my size now. I was able to button them without any trouble and I could still breathe when I sat down in them!

I also picked up a couple shirts and ended up getting one in a size I didn't think I would be able to wear yet. If this keeps up I just might start to enjoy going clothes shopping!

Yeah I'm so happy for you. I know when I got into 18's in bottoms & Larges in the tops I thought for sure I'd pass out. LOL You are doing SOoooo great!

How do you balance being a Christian, wife, mom of 3, & remaining close to your friends?

Congrats Melissa, there is something about a pair of zip up jeans that sorta makes us feel part of the "normal" society. I am very proud of your success, keep up the good work.
