So I'm down 45 pounds and haven't bought clothes yet.  Still wearing my 22/24.  A friend of mine at work says.  Really go buy something flattering.  Well today I dug through one of those storage tubs. Pulled out a size 16 pair of jeans and they fit.  I zipped them right up.  I am so thrilled. I never thought I was a size 16.  A long way to go still but I'm getting there.

You can't take care of them, if you don't take care of you!!

That's an awesome NSV!!  I remember having those bins of clothes.  I finally got to buy a few pairs of size 10.  That made my day!  Now I'm working on getting out of the double digits.

I had the same experience and shock at Old Navy.  Walked in with my old 22 pants on and tried on each size under 22 and ended up in 16's.  It was so exciting.  I love my new body.  Congratulations.
