NSV SHOCKER!

While packing my office, my ring kept falling off. My size 16 jeans were loose, but I assumed that I needed to wash them (forgetting that the dress pants were loose also). So as the result of these, I decided to weigh myself. I was down 2 pounds.

I went to Dillard's for a party outfit. I grabbed 2 XL tops, but couldn't decide. The sales lady told me to try them on. On the way to the dressing room she stopped and got a large.  I didn't protest. At the very least, I can see how far I have to go. It fits perfectly! (granted, the top's arms are batwings like my actual arms)

I go to Penney's for pants and decide to see how far I am from a 14. They fit!

so, large top (if right style of arm) and 14 pants. Not sure how in the midst of this that I went down a size, but I'll take it.

Yeah. Most stores have XL.  They are bigger in some stores than others.

Thats fantastic!!!


I've been the total opposite later - Ive been going around shopping trying to squeeze into clothes I know I can't wear :-p

But I found a tank at old navy that was a M that fit - I almost died. I almost went back and bought every color :-p

 LOL!  I'm sure there is an analysis of why you are doing that, but I have no idea.  Cracked me up though.

LOL, hope you're not spending too much money on new clothes as it sounds like you're going to keep dropping sizes! CONGRATS!!

 It was a special occasion, a party in my honor.  I wanted to show off. I'm too cheap to get carried away. However, once the new pay check starts....I may be tempted a little.  

I told a friend over 1 month ago that I was done until the fall. She literally laughed out loud until she cried. I told her that I wouldn't be a 14 before the fall or maybe even later.  She said that I would be a 14 before summer and a 10 by the end of the year.  So far, she nailed it.
