16/18's OMG I can't believe it
OMG I just bought a pair of size 16/18 capris My hubby says they look good I'm still on the fence but oh my god they fit.He's thrilled I can shop anywhere now.I am so thrilled to be moving steadily away from my size 28's that I will keep forever to remember where I sunk to & how far I've come in my fight to win myself back.JUst wanted to share Thanks buddies for listening & understanding my excitement like noone else can even begin to
Melinda,
Way to go girl! I understand about how you feel about not being comfortable - but get used to them wearing them in the house, and once you are "good" doing that - run an errand or something in them. That helps to get yourself used to looking at your new and changing body.
Keep up the fabulous work!
Oh....and only keep one pair of those "fat" clothes - it's good to have a reminder - but no need to keep them all to dwell on the past. I have one shirt and one pair of jeans from my high weight - and lemme tell you - it's amazing to look at. I can actually just about get BOTH legs into one of the legs of those jeans - how ridiculous!

Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.
What a fantastic wow moment for you - congratulations on the size 16/18 - that is totally awesome! I can't imagine being in those 'teen' digits but hope to get there some day! I'm now in a 22 (sometimes a 20 depending on the pant) from a 32 and I know how wonderful that feels, so you must be walking on Cloud 9 right now! Congratulations on your awesome successes - and I love your new avitar - you look fantastic! Kathy
