For me anyways:)))))---- I went to WalMart yesterday and was gonna get me a few shirts for summer mine seem to be getting a little big. Well anyways I went to the dressing room with 4 shirts one size down from what I normally wear which is a 22-26 (depending on the make of the shirt) So I had size 20-22 shirts and guess what size I left Walmart with???????_____ A 16!!!!! I had to keep getting my son to go get different sizes......me with a 16 shirt-----WOW!!!!! Also this morning I tried on size 18 jeans outta my closet and I could get them on the booty!!!!! They had stretch of course BUT they still came up----When I first bought them they wouldnt go over my hips much less my butt LOL>>>>I kept them cause I hoped one day I would be able to wear them-----Welll today was that day...............Just want to share this little bit of joy with all of you.....Have a good day...(((((HUGS)))))Carol....LOL Imma take a picture with my 16 shirt and 18 jeans!!!!!!!LOL....

WOW, indeed! I can't wait to be able to go shopping and actually buy something I like...not something I have to! Maybe when it's not such a depressing event shopping will be a pleasure! Good for you! Mare
