So - after my b*tching and complaining at Julie's meeting last week about my size 16's I went to the store this weekend and figured "what the heck, I'll try on 14's" and...drumroll please...they fit!!!  I was really excited and I'm glad that for once my complaining paid off!

I'm still holding steady and I'm down 220 lbs - the scale hasnt moved more than 5 lbs over the last month but I'm happy! 

Thanks for all of your support!

CONGRATS!!!!
I am wearing size 22 and they are getting loose. I REFUSE to wear ANYTHING bigger than 22!!! (I used to wear 28's and they were skin tight. Oh, BTW, I am also wearing a 1X!!!! WHOO-WHO, I was in a 4X...a 1X was something that I NEVER thought I would be in ever again!...now to get to a XLg, then a Large.
I think I will throw a party when I get into a Medium (Size 12/14 pants)!
Gotta heal from this last surgery :(
