BIG WoW!
Oh darn, I forgot to take a picture... but here's my great story.
I needed a new pair of pants because everything is getting big on me, so off to Kohl's I went with my 15% off coupon.
I didn't find what I was looking for, but I did see the Lee Slacks that I wore sometime post-op in a size 20. I decided to try on the 14's for kicks and decided to take a size 12 into the fitting room to get an idea of how far out I am from the 12's.
The 14's were perfect, if not a tad baggy in the legs. (all those miles walked!)
So I decided to try the 12's. Pull up, zip up, button up, sit down. Perfect except for the panty line which will take another 5 pounds or sitting and stretching, for them to fit.
I didn't get the 14's because they'd be too big too soon and the 12's weren't available in a 12. So all I walked out with was a HUGE grin on my face.
This weekend is the first time that the reality of my weight loss is starting to hit home for me.

A great WOW!!! By the time you get back to get a pair you will probably be close to a 10!!! It just seems that once you get in those sizes they go down really fast!

Oh Roz, seeing a size 12 zip and button was like Nirvana. I ran right home and made a protein shake! :)
I was a single digit in 1974 for a minute, but before that I think it was grade school. I was 176 when I graduated HS in 1968 and that was a size 16 back then.

I got married in 1974 and my wedding dress was a 13/14. Only thing better way back then was I was tight and firm and Now I'm a wrinkly, giggly, size 2....

I'm doing a jig for ya 
Way to go! Don't you love the little things that make us smile! I am going to go shopping tomorrow. I can not wait. I have not been to the outlet stores in about 5 years. I am making a special trip tomorrow. I need some comfy shoes and some pants for work. It is so much fun to shop now. I used to hate shopping and not being able to find anything to wear. Now it is hard to choose cause alot of stuff fits. Congrats again on your success you look great!
Nothing tastes as good as this feels!
