So, I was at Target with a friend last night. She told me that sweats were on sale and she was getting some. She uses them for outdoor chores in the winter. I decided I could use some too because sometimes when I get home from work and want to change out of work clothes, I want something warm and kind of grubby to finish the day depending on what I'm going to be doing. So, I grab a large and a medium and head to the fitting room. I put on the mediums first while it is going through my mind that this is wishful thinking. Well, the medium top fit, but the pants were too big I had to get a small. Now, I know that sizes are different depending on what it is, and who makes it, but wow, a small. I just not imagine a few months ago that my big butt would fit is a small anything. Even thought I'm stair stepping the weight loss, my body is shrinking big time. I can see my collarbone now, wow. I can't wait to see what I fit into in a few months. I am sure enjoying this ride.

Wow, that's amazing, Linda! I don't think I was a "small" since I shopped in the Children's Department. I hope you did some whooping and hollering!! Congratulations on a great journey!! - Chris
