I would shop there too,E! I got my jeans hubby ordered for me for Christmas and they all fit too. Two pair of Levi 710 super skinny jeans size 24×32 and a pair of 24×32 525 super skinny jeans from Macys.j I also got a pair of size 0 American Eagle boyfriend style jeans that fit too. I feel like such an imposter wearing anything that says super skinny but everyone says they look good so I'll go with it.

I went to Macy's today... wanted to tell everyone who walked by me (customers and clerks both) that I belonged... I was legally allowed to be in the normal sizes.  And the large of everything fit... except one sweater that was a medium.  This shopping thing is like a drug.  And have barely eaten.  Now if the money wull not run out...

I love all of them,especially the last sweater. Looking Great! Just realize these clothes won't fit for long and even smaller ones are in your future. Keep up the great work.

I know they will not fit for long.  I went to several thrift stores, but the clothes were not me... I was a teenager last time i was this weight.  And it was a terrific sale!

I really found that it helped me to have clothes that fit well and that motivated me to keep making good choices everyday. Enjoy those new outfits. I wish they had given me fashion sense when I had my surgery. I'd been obese my whole life and didn't really have a style because I'd always bought whatever fit and had limited choices.I still don't have one style and have lots of variety and just about every color in my closet. Enjoy your new choices!

It was so much easier to focus on eating right after trying on regular clothes.  Seeing myself dressed like a normal sized person, shopping in a normal department store was hugly motivating.  I went through my closet again and pulled out everything that is too big - need to feel what snug fels like so I can keep my eye on the prize!  And I also just wore what was made for my large size... I have always wanted to wear boots, which I fit in now.  I love tunics with leggings... it is such an amazing new world.  Just like a drug.  I feel so euphoric when I look at the clothes that fit me ;)

I am so there with you when I look at my jeans...and I'm like I'll never get into these...and I get into them. I am 5'11" and wear size 6 jeans... I never thought at my height I'd wear single digits. Wore a pair of jeans the other day and they kept sliding off me...looked at the end of the night and they were a pair of my size 8's. Size 8's falling off me???

Some days I see 'thin' in the mirror and some days I see 'not that thin'...

I am almost 2 1/2 years out.... still working on it...
