I am so excited. I went shopping this weekend just to try on clothes mostly and because I wanted a new pair of jeans and a new sweater for Thanksgiving. I'm not getting carried away with clothes because I still have a long way to go yet BUT everything I tried on from the Misses Department FIT!!! Size 16 Petite jeans and an XL sweater. NO MORE PLUS SIZES!!! I about cried right there in the dressing room. I had to call my daughter on the phone and I'm sure other people in the dressing room heard every word but I didn't care. YEE HA!!!!!

...... it is so mind boggling that we don't fit in the same clothes. These little wow moments make it all worthwhile. I look at the T shirts laying on my bed after I take them out of the dryer... and think... crap, I shrunk them... but oh no..... oh no.... they fit. They actually fit.... wow... Enjoy this journey.

Oh Laura, I am so happy for you? That is such a wonderful feeling!

I cried in the dressing room when I got into a certain size. Just sat down on the bench and cried! (Happy tears.)

I know how you must feel! Congratulations!
