Went clothes shopping....

I went to our old fav Penningtons......the deals this time of year are great....I put on a size 16 dress which fit. What a rush!   i almost bought it just because it fit! LOL  The 1X was too big. Ya gotta  love it.

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats Charline :) I remember the last time I shopped there and even the smallest size was too big. I walked out the door in my head saying "Buh-bye Penningtons!" and haven't been through the doors since.

Wow, that's amazing Charline. Must have felt really good!  Size 16 OMG. You are doing really well with your weight loss. You must be doing something right !   Keep up the good work and those nsv will keep on showing up. I love the nsv's. Seems like everyday there are new ones.

Whoopee Charlene; what a feeling that must be.  Its a long time ago remember when for me; too far back. LOL  How are you doing? How is the weight going?  I got a referral this past week to Dr. Savoie from my family Dr.; but I must say my family Dr. was very disinterested.

Of course they are dis-interested. They make more money from you if you are un-wll, un-fit, overweight, etc... Think of all the ailments we overweight people have. Weight loss surgery could put them out of business.   LOL  Seriously I have not idea why GP's are so negative when it comes to WLS. They sould do some more training on the subject by either going to school or some siminars. There\s an idea!! The weight loss surgeons should be  putting on information sessions for the GP's. 

Now that your referral is in, you are heading toward the next step.; Hang on, you will get there!

My weight loss is going soooooo slowly, but I am getting smaller, so who cares? (well I do because I am addicted to the numbers, but I know the number isn't that really important). I have out on so much muscle. I noticed that kayaking has built my biceps big time! Imagine, at 55 years old I have pipes! LOL  I am betting that there is a 6 pack under my penicula (tummy apron).

Thanks for asking!

Gotta love it indeed!  Way to go Charlene.  It has to be one of the best feelings ever to say good-bye to the plus size stores.  As they say, "nothing tastes as good as skinny feels"!!!  Keep up the good work - Suzanne H.  

I can only fantasize what it must feel like not to have to shop at Penningtons. Although it has been faithful to me over the last oh so many years, beautiful clothes, thoughtful, understanding clerks, I cannot wait to say goodby to Penningtons forever.  BUT then where do I shop!  I have been going to Penningtons for so long that I almost feel like I am their only customer LOL. Some of the other clothes are just too young for us 50 year olds.  But I guess it will be exciting trying to figure it out. Marks Work Warehouse has some nice clothes.  Conrats, Charlene. You look wonderful and have accomplished so much. Good by size 22-24, hello size 16!

Way to go girl.That is good news.
I can't wait untill I get there,Liquid diet on wed.One more person going to be on the loosing block

I went to Moncton's Pennington because  they sell sizes 14 and 16 and the deals are great this time of year..... well nothing fit! The proportions were all wrong!  But I finally replaced my way too big  undies with size "X".  No more tripping on my undies! LOL
