OMG !!! Size what.......

So there is this big clearance sale this Saturday at Plato's Closet in State College. Everything on clearance is $1.00. Pants, shirts, sweatshirts, etc. I have been waiting for two months to get smaller pants (much needed). I went yesterday to Goodwill to try jeans on to see what size I wear cause I figure Plato's is going to be a madhouse on Sat. and I just want to be able to grab off the rack and not have to try anything on. I am wearing a size 14 right now and I so did the excited happy dance when I got into these. So anyhow I take some jeans into the fitting room and I am wearing a size 10 OMG!!! I took a picture of my ass in a size freaking 10. I don't think I have worn this size since I was 9 yrs old. At my highest weight last year I was wearing a size 26/28. I am just overwhelmed by how much my life has changed and how great it feels. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be wearing this size clothes. What an amazing new life. I am just so thankful. Had to share with all you guys. You have been so helpful and such and inspiration along the way. Everyday I count myself blessed to have found you all.

First off - BIG CONGRATS TO YOU!!!!!  Savor that feeling - you've worked hard to get there!

Next - can you tell me where Plato's Closet is in State College? (what's it near?)... my daughter Katie is there and hasn't found it yet.  I'd like to give her some clue as to where to look.  Haha.

Wow that kind of makes us neighbors in a way. Ha Ha Ok tell Katie that Plato's is in the Wal Mart plaza on Atherton Street. The one with the Eatin' Park resturant. It is the store on the end of the plaza directly across from the Eatin' Park. I think there is also a nail salon, and maybe a GNC in that plaza. Hope she finds it. And make sure she knows that tomorow is the day to go. They are clearing out inventory before moving to another location. Thus the big sale. After that I am not sure where the new store is but I can find out.

Perfect - thanks!  I'll pass that along to her!

OMG!  I am soooo thrilled for you - it happened to me a few weeks ago - I thought that the 14's were just a little big because maybe they needed to be washed and dried, then I went shopping and put on a bunch of 12's and they too were too big....Kinda cool isn't it!!!!  Keep it up!!!!  It is sooo much fun!  Congrats!!!!

Way to go Belinda!!!

I am still wearing 12's in jeans, but I did buy 2 size 10 dresses last week!! 

Steffi and I modeled them at Liz's house so I know we are both right there with you!!

Rock it!!   You are even better than me because yours are jeans!!   My belly is still a little too big for size 10 jeans.

I am very jealous!!!  Way to go, I know that feeling I went from childrens 14 to a womans 14. You should be very proud!

Fantastic! And the end of your post says it all - it's not just about wearing a 10...it's about life changing for the better.

woo hoo soo excited for you , you are an inspiration.....
