I almost cried in the dressing room at New York and Company,... I tried on a misses size 16 shirt, XL shirt and 16 pants... and THEY all FIT!!!!  I bought 3 t shirts ... 7.99 each. Then I went to Macy's ... where I have a gift card.... and tried on many misses size 16 clothes.. everything fit... but everything was too expensive... so off to Penney's... I found a pretty teal sweater.. and what size  was it??? A size 16!!!  I have one of my new tops on.. I feel so pretty and thin! 

I started noticing the last week that the clothes i am wearing were getting looser.. and I tried on a sweat shirt of my husband's and it fit.... but I didn't think that I was a misses size 16!

I think the last time I wore a size 16 I was in college.

I LOVE MY RNY!!

Helen, I am so excited for you. You have done such a great job.  What an inspiration you are.  WOW, a size 16.  I can't even remember when that was for me. 
But, hopefully in a month or so I'll be on my way.  Just finishing up my 6 month medically supervised program for insurance. 
Take care & Keep on losing,
Connie

This past month has been different than the first 3 months... not alot of weight loss... but I am losing inches... while I was discouraged by the lact of weight loss.... I am Very excited about getting into misses sizes.

Congrats Helen! I can't even remember what my rear looked like at a size 16...but I can't wait to find it again!

Kathy...

its still hard to realize when I hold up a pair of pants or shirt...that I can really wear this smaller size!  I finally let go of all my size 18's

Thank you...  Helen
