Hi All,

I loved my WOW moments yesterday.  I needed pants and went to Kohl's yesterday.  I loved trying on tons of clothes and deciding what looked best, not just what fit!  Size 12 pants and large tops!  And, I could bargain hunt! 

Then last night, I went to a party and danced WITHOUT sweating . . . finally. 

Unfortunately, I was not careful eating yesterday (some candy, some alcohol) and I don't feel great today . . . and I gained weight.  The weight gain is also a WOW - I need to be reminded.

Hope everyone had a fun Halloween.   Meg

Damn! I have no friggin idea what it feels like to pick the pants I like instead of the pants that fit. I usually hear TAPS playing in the background when I go shopping for clothes! LOL  Good for you Meg. Sounds like you got a wake up call wht the candy and the alcohol. Live and learn!!

Gotta keep my focus and stick with it for 4-6 more weeks til I get my first fill. Congrats to you ya skinny thing!!!

Quick suggestion: Find the stores in your area where you can find discount clothes in your sizes. While it'll be tempting to buy awesome, sexy new clothes in your new sizes keep in mind the weight's still coming off - today's sexy new thing may be next week's baggy, oversized tent.

Marshall's and Ross have been a godsend for me as I've gone from a 62 waist to a 44, so far..

Happy shopping!

Wow!  Congrats on the big (small!) WOW moment Meg!!!      I can't wait to start having a few of those myself next year!  I can't even imagine what it must be like to shop in a "normal" store for "normal" sizes! 

Don't get too down about the wow weight gain - just look at how far you've come!  You're doing great!

Congratulations on your WOW moment, that must have felt awesome. I have had a few like that myself recently and it is a great feeling.

Take care!

Also don't forget that you CANNOT gain weight overnight!!  Just maybe need to "go".  If you have a treat once in a while you will be fine, as long as it is not an everyday thing.

Good luck... It's great shopping in a "regular" store huh??!!
