NSV for me!

It's been a busy week but I wanted to share a NSV I had on Saturday.  I went to buy my mom a Mother's Day gift.  My mom is tiny, a size 2, so I wouldn't have gone in this store otherwise.  While looking around my husband picked up a few things and insisted I try them on.  Well, he was right and I was wrong.  I ended up getting a pair of bermuda shorts and a pencil skirt in a  size 12! And a pair of cropped trousers in a size 14.  I even tried on some shirts in an XL and they FIT!  Tops are always my bigger problem because I have wide shoulders and a large chest.  

I was so excited by this that I pulled out a box of clothes I saved from my skinniest time after my lap band.  I have a ways to go for most of them, but I have so many pair of cute jeans all the way down to a size 4!  So yeah, I got some work to do but I feel so excited to have those things on my horizon again and I'm closer than I thought I was 

That's wonderful! Congratulations!!

Awesome! Congrats!

Good for you.  I never could "shop in my clothest" because I had been heavy for so long, all the little clothes were way long gone.  Just don't buy too much now because you will "undergrow" them soon enough.  I totally skipped some sizes on my way down.

That's Wonderful!!  I think it's awesome that your DH insisted you try on smaller sizes.  He must be sooo Proud of you!

My husband is really the best! He has been my biggest cheerleader.  He tells me often how proud of how hard I am working and how he knows that WLS is so not the easy way out, he can see it.  I am very lucky to have him.
