NSV, my sister kept telling me 'I told ya so'

Well I packed my size 22 dress pants away about a month or two ago they were just too baggy. I have been still wearing my 22 skinny jeans with a belt, they are baggy but not too bad. Anyways was over at my sister's tonight cause she said she had a bag of 16 and 14's from her sister in law for me but I said maybe by next summer they will fit. Well anyways she told me to go try on the 16 in pants I held them up to my waist and said no they won't go around me yet cause they didn't meet evenly on my sides. She kept telling me I won't know unless I try them on so I tried them on and I didn't have to suck in my gut or anything, they are snug but they went on WOW. I just can't see it and not losing that much weight but yes to the inches. I even tried on some large tops well they were snug tight fitting compared to the 3x shirts I have. I guess it is not a race in weight at all cause my weight loss has been slow but I know the inches keep happening cause of the belt I brought, first hole, now second hole and almost to the third one. It is just simply amazing but I don't see it yet other then the baggy pants. My sister told me my winter coat looks stupid on me but I said it is going to have to do me this winter cause I am not buying another one but I wonder what I did with my old winter coat... Right now I am always freezing so I wear a sweater plus another sweatcoat underneath so a regular coat wouldn't fit me with how bundled up I am. I told my sister that whenever her hubby is giving away his old sweatshirts I want them cause I am so cold all the time now and wear that stuff around the house.

Love my sleeve

Job well done! Continue to rock your sleeve! 

Thank you, thank you. It was so weird cause I was going to go to a store to try on 20's or MAYBE 18's. My mom told me she brought me 15's for xmas I was like yeah ok mom I will most likely be taking them back but I probably just have to wait a month or so and the will fit tight.

It does take some getting use to. I have so many clothes I wear but they are so baggy and I really should let them go. Others that I think are too small are now too big! Sometimes it is simply amazing but I wouldn't trade this for anything in the world!!!

LOL my daughter thinks this is cool and just brought me in two large shirts of her's that she won't wear cause one of her teacher's have the same one, so it fits and it is snug woohoo but my daughter said the tight shirts look good on me, just need some good pick me up bras now she said I am going to have to get push up ones lol I was a 42H

and my daughter just told me to wear them 16 jeans with a longer top on them that they make me look small. She is becoming my favorite little friend tonight lol. The only problem with my sister's shirts is she is short in the body, I am long. So now I have to go shopping for pick me ups then I will be able to wear lots of these tops.

awesome for you!!

I imagine you are right there with me Paige, we started around the same. I was getting a little frustrated at how slow the scale is moving at times compared to others but knew something was happening because of the way my clothes were getting. So I am not going to concentrate so much on how much I lose but to watch the sizes of clothes lol. I am not really even paying attention to the inches either, I remember what they told me in the hospital so someday I will compare when someone measures me correctly.

New clothes are an excellent NSV especially since they were free!

yes my sister and her sister in law have been storing them at their place telling me to take them home but I just kept putting it off saying there was no way I was even close to that size.

I don't intend to buy any new clothes so I will be sticking to hand me downs until I get to a stable size, single parent here so kids come first.
