That is so great! Good for you! I am starting to organize my clothes now by size so I can be prepared to pull my smaller sizes out. It's exciting. I am also trying so hard not to buy new clothes now to get through this winter but it is hard. I'm a shopper! There are some clothing exchanges that are organized for WLS that you can donate and repleni****'s a good idea when you change sizes so quickly.

I put all of the clothes that I had that were a size or two too small on me, folded on a shelf in my closet. Yesterday I went through all of them and most of them fit and some were too big. This journey is even more exciting when you love clothes and are a shopper that's for sure! For me it's creative expression and it feels so good to be creative with my clothing once again.

It won't be the last time you'll experience it! lol

I really haven't experienced the shoe thing, but jeans...many times! My sister and Mom have called me a bag lady at times, because of how big my jeans are lol Not cheap replacing them, so I wear them until there falling off!

I'm in the jeans now that I was around the lowest weight as an adult in my early twenties, and I'm not sure how much longer there going to last. That means a size 18 is next for me...a one in front of my size lol

The 'smaller' you get the quicker you go through sizes I'm finding. But, its a good thing!
