I can't get in the water yet but yesterday I went to the pool and just hung out and read. As I was walking in I noticed my suit felt biggish. When I stood up to leave thank God the thing had the attached panty because.....it fell halfway down my legs. I hardly wore this suit.....loved it and was trying to save it for special occasions. It was a size 30. So today I bought a new one....and it's not one of those suits with 9 yards of material to float up in your face either! It was a one piece basic tank....drumroll please.....size 22. I have NEVER worn a 22 ANYTHING in my life!!! I went straight from size 15 juniors when I could find them.....to a size 24 womens as an 18 year old. I know, I know...sizes have gotten bigger over the years but.....4 years ago I could not have pulled this suit up around me....and except for my legs looking super flabby these days.....it's not that bad!!!! WOW!!!!!

Hooray for you! I bought a size 16 suit this spring--down from a 22/24. That was a happy dance day, too! Congratulations on your continuing loss! Lois

Amy, those size wow moments are to be cherished!! I know my husband always tells me (when I was a 3X and 22-24) it's just a number (trying to make me feel better). But trust me -- the numbers are so so important to someone who has been overweight all her life!! Size 22 -- you go girl!! I am proud of you -- congratulations. Oh, and don't buy too many things in a 22, you'll be in an 18 before you know it -- it's amazing. Record this in your profile!! You'll look back many times and relive this wonderful feeling. Love donna
