Hi Everyone!

I have not been around in awhile as it is the end of the semester, my life is crrrrraaaaazzzzyyyyyyy!!!   I also was in Duke the week before last with severe kidney stones.  I had never had those before and it was a scary experince, but I am much better now.  I will be finished with my classes on Monday, but it is literally a marathon until then.  I am exercising every day too.  I swim laps for 60 minutes every day, and I do water aerobics and weight training on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.   I feel so incredible.

Well, I saw my nutritionist yesterday, and she said my BMI has dropped 65.9 to 52.1 in 10 weeks!!!  I am so thrilled!   I cannot believe that!  I have lost 84lbs since May 6th and hopefully will hit the 100lb mark in the next month.  This is the best thing I have ever done for myself.  I hope to be at the Raleigh meetup this weekend.  I would love to do some goodwill hunting after if anyone is interested.  I really need new clothes! LOL  I look forward to seeing you all, and I will talk to you soon!

What do you need, and in what sizes?

Hi Andrea!

I need just about everything in sizes 26 and soon 24.  I hope you are well!

Well.. not that much in 26..  Here's what I got:

2 *nice* sweaters sized 22/24.  Got these last T-giving while I was preggers and needed some nice clothes for Christmas parties and such.  I'd say work-worthy.

1 pair of pretty worn jeans (no holes.. yet) sized 22.  They are LB stretch bootcuts.

1 pair of almost brand new LB "right size" blue 4 jeans.  Go to their website to look at these for measurements because they are a "vanity size".. but they are designed for those of us with larger butts than waists.  I'd guess normal size to be 22/24.

2 pair of 22 shorts -- worn, but in good condition.  One jean, one khaki.

Tons of non-descript 3x and 4x tees.. I usually wear these working out, but they are really getting too large for me even to do that (I wear a Large these days..)

Pretty soon, I'll have a few pair of 20 capris.. Hell, I should stop wearing one pair now.  It's bad when you can take your jeans off without unbuttoning them, right?

Lemme know if any of this sounds good to you.

Hey, Andrea!

They all sound great to me!   I hope to be in 22-24 in the next month.   I already wear 22-24 in shirts, but the hips and tummy are resisting.   I know you are dropping down quickly, and I am so happy for you.  A large instead of the Xs is so awesome!
