I had to go shopping for something suitable to wear to a funeral. Hubby and I stopped in Dress Barn Friday night on our way out of town. I picked up and tried on several outfits in a size 12. They all fit perfectly. Then I picked up a skirt and tried it on. It was a little more snug than everything else, but I got it on without any problems. I looked at the tag and it was a 10! A freaking 10! Then I found another outfit that I really liked, but there were no 12's. There was a 10, however. I tried it on and it fit too! I am pretty sure that the skirt was a different label. I guess I can consider it official that I am a size 10! The reason this is so unbelievable and amazing for me is that I have never been a size 10. Never ever. Well, not that I can remember, anyway. In middle school I was in 12's. Junior high was 14's. High school was 16's and I only went up from there. I have been on cloud 9 all weekend and I just had to share! I hope everyone had a great weekend! hugs, Stacey

Congratulations. Cant wait until i get to that point. I remember 16's in the sixth grade. Felt too old in big clothes then. Never the same styles as the other kids. Looks like you will be in single digits soon. Ohhhhhh WHat a feeling!!! Shannon

Thank you, Shannon! I know what you mean about styles, too. It's so great to be able to wear normal sized clothes. The smallest size in the women's section was way too big! It was definately awesome. You will be there before you know it! hugs, Stacey
