XP: NSV! Someone thought I was a small! +pics

It's so great when people have Non-Scale-Victories!  I've never posted one until now.  I think it's because all the comments and being able to fit into things really weren't surprising to me.  And it sure seems that for it to qualify as a NSV it really has to take us aback!

So my boss is like a size 2 and while complimentary about my weight loss, we are not particularly close.  Last night she sent me an email saying she had bought a top for herself on clearance, size small, without trying it on and it was too big for her but she thought it might fit me.  ME! 

This morning she brought it in and it's a sweater-like shrug so lots of stretch but nevertheless labeled a Macy's SMALL and it really did fit me well.  I'm in a SMALL!

I knew my size 8 petite bottom half was now considered "S" but my 36D chest sure has prevented me from seeing myself as small on top.  I can't believe it fits!

The best part was that she thought of me as someone who could fit into it.  Awesome!

You aren't just small, you are tiny.  And I am jealous, you still have boobs.

Haha, yes I still have boobs!  I'd be happier if they were a 34C but it never seems to work out that way, does it?

My goal is 130 (I'm 145 now) and of course everyone is telling me that I should stop losing.  Here's what I say ... "I'm not changing the way I eat right now and if I lose more, then that's what will happen, but if I stay here, then that'll be fine too."
