new pics and more warm fuzzy moments
My one and only nephew graduated from high school tonight and I went shopping for a new outfit. I was wearing at least a size 34-36 and 5x tops before wls. I went to the store and tried on a size 30 because that is what size of jeans I was just able to get into. the 30's where to big so I went to a size 28 and they where lose but I love my clothes at least a size to big because I like to hide my body under baggy clothes. I grabed a 4x shirt and it was a fitted shirt so I wanted it bigger ( it really is way to big but it was commfy). I could wear a 26 if I wanted to but they are just a little tighter than I like. I bought size 3 x shirts and they fit great. I was so happy. Than I had to buy new sandles because I am a size smaller in shoes no too.
It Is weid that I have lost almost 60lbs but I have lost it in my upper body, arms and legs not really where I am the biggest my lower bellyand my rearend. I am begining to think I will never lose in those places and I will be stuck with them this size forever.
I did actually let my family take pics of me tonight it is the first time in almost 6 years that I have allowed my pic to be taken.

Keep up the great job and post some pictures. 
I weighed 354 pounds before my surgery. I wore a size 30-32 clothes. As you lose the weight your confidence shoots through the roof and wearing a size that is a little snug but actually fits s weird at first but you look in the mirror and you actually see how good you look. Now I am down to size 10 and I still have body issues about buying clothes. I immediately go the the larger size by habit I guess. Then I try them on and I just have to laugh because that size is so big on me. The journey has been awesome. Good luck to you on your journey and each day that passes is a new adventure. I wouldn't trade it for the world.
Okay when you say 30 is that the size of inches or the new way they do clothes....
I am so happy for ya!
Just remember this littl tidbit we are going to lose weight from arms, girls, feet and legs plus but before the fat comes off from the belly! So dont despair it will come off too
