WOW's yes plural!
So yesterday I put on my coat and Iost the last loose button. Well I didn't have time to search for a needle and thread and sew it back on, so I ran up to my closet to see what else I might have had. I didn't want to wear my ski jacket 'cause it just didn't go with my other clothes. Rummaging through I found my Pea Coat in size 16. I hadn't worn it last winter because it was way too tight and I had meant to give it to a Coat Drive my Daisy Troop had but I couldn't find it then. Well I tried it on thinking even if it was still tight It should close enough to offer some protection. Well it fit perfectly! All the buttons closed and it didn't pull or gather like it was too tight. I was even able to wear a bulky scarf underneath!!! I think that Pea Coat was hiding on me until I could fit in it again!
Today I was looking for some clothes to wear next week for work because I have to visit 1 or 2 clients. Both are manufacturing plants, so I don't have to go all "suited" up but I do have to dress decent. Well I came across a skirt that I had in a pile for good will. It's a woolen wrap skirt and I know the last time I tried it on it only wrapped about 1/2 way around my butt. It's size 16. Today it went right on and looks great. Then I saw a pair of Jones New York pants that are size 14. I picked them up and said "I should see how soon these might fit me and sure enough they came right up and I was able to button and zip them. Still a little too skin tight, but soon , very soon.

What you now need to do is swap those piles out! Go through those clothes you have for goodwill and see what fits you - and take the clothes OUT of your closet that are to big and put them for goodwill!
CONGRATS!! I bet you look AWESOME in both things!
