My First Wow Moment!!!
Well i had to get on the scale.... cause i was just curious to see if i lost anymore weight... well i did... i am down a total of 23 pds!!!! whooo hoooo.... pats myself on the back... LOL... my real wow moment happened when i got dressed. I have an array of sizes from 18 to 28.... i wanted to see if any of my swelling went down... so i can actually wear a pair of jeans..... so i tried size 24.... too big! tried a size 22... too big..... tried a size 20..... and they are loose!!!! I was literally giggling and jumping around my bedroom like a little kid. It was the most amazing feeling...... I actually fit into a size 20 jean again.... I am soooooooo happy!
It is Amazing how fast your cloth sizes will change and what a Thrill it is to fit into clothes that you have not worn for years.
I am at the point almost where my 'Skinny' clothes that I had stored away for the last decade of so, are all too big on me.
I just now but cheap clothes until my weight settles. 44 pants I bought a month ago are swimming on me. I skipped right over 42 and as of yesterday are wearing 40 " Pants.
It is DAMN AMAZING.
Congratulations!
i'm right there with ya's and the wow moments my size 18 jeans are in florida with someone from the main board -- my 16's are too big -- my 14's are loose in the legs but good around the belly -- no 12's yet
when i was gaining weight i would never ever ever buy anything over a size 18 -- it was one of those things i never wanted to face -- so i went from a size 17/18 to a size 2X sweatpants -- ok maybe some 3X sweats too -- and my shirts were all 2X or 3X -- now my shirts are a size Large -- my undies are baggy -- can you imagine baggy undies lol how stupid does that sound haha
Ross went out to buy bib overalls for work (he works outside alot) and he was looking at 48's -- i thought he was CRAZY!! told him to look at the 40's first -- he listened to the wife they fit him just fine since he'll have other clothes on underneath -- but his 38's are too big and he just bought some 36's -- his shirts are also a Large -- and his lounging pants are Large -- this is the same guy who got married 3 yrs ago in a size 56 pants
i guess sometimes it's hard to see the loss on yourself
now i need all new Red Sox and Patriot shirts and jackets what a shame
take care all
