NSV... Clothing shopping!!
It's time for my first NSV after surgery!
I'm headed back to work on Tuesday so I decided to treat myself to some new clothing today.. I am down to a 2-3x from a 5x!! This was the best shopping experience that I've had in years. I almost cried when I tried that first 2x on!
I'm still doing little happy dances around the changing room in my head. Lol

When I bought my 34 slim fit Wranglers I gave the clerk that was helping me a BIG hug!
Congrats!
The clothing part of weight loss can be super expensive. A number of people find services like Gwynnie Bee to be useful, and thrift stores!

Congrats! I've become a huge fan of poshmark as an affordable way to stay clothed while changing sizes.
I'm a thrift store junkie... even now, at my maintenance weight/size I still shop primarily Goodwill and a couple of other local thrift stores.
I don't like online shopping because I end up not liking the way something looks ON me once I try it on. I try everything on in advance at the thrift stores, that way I know I look good in them first before buying them.
