I Just Bought a Size L!

I needed to get a pair of jeans...everything I have is either too big or too small.  I stopped at Old Navy and decided to look around, since I'd found a few pairs of Old Navy pants in my closet the other day that were 18's and fit me! I tried on some jeans, some dressier pants, a sweater and some shirts.  The XL shirt was too big!  It was a cotton button-down shirt too, not the oversized stretchy ones!  I had to get it BECAUSE it was a Large!  I was not leaving the store without a large in my bag.  haha!!  Got 2 pairs of size 18 pants too.  How crazy is that!?  Just 3 months ago I was wearing tight size 24's.  I think I'm floating.  :)

Thanks Jennifer!  Yes, it feels great!  I have only shopped for my son at Old Navy for the last 6 years.  I am a clothes fanatic, so I look forward to doing it again soon!  LOL!

It's FaNtAsTiC!!!! You should be sure to get a photo in those new duds so we can see the trimmer new you!

Enjoy them while they still fit. Soon you'll need a medium. :-)

Thanks Barb!  I'll try to get a picture tonight at our meeting with the girls.  I'm not wearing any of the new duds until the weekend though.  LOL! Can't  WAIT until I can wear medium again...I have a closet full of gorgeous mediums and smalls that I just couldn't bring myself to get rid of.  So glad I didn't!!

Check out steve and Barrys if you have one near you.  I'm dying to go to one near Jacksonville now taht I moved from Charlotte.  I got  about 5 pairs of size 10 jeans back in feb there and it was only like $10 a pair.  It's an awsome store, they have close very similar to Old Navy. I am now too small fro my size 10 jeans, but what to do, I didn't buy anything smaller so I wear them.  Congrats and smile big with your size L shirt! Jen
