I went today to get a couple of pairs of pants and a couple of tops, as I am down to next to nothing that fits. I "knew' I needed a size 12 pant, so only tried on the shirts, as I had the same pair of pants already and knew how they fit. The lady at the clothing store told me "try em on.. I know you have lost more since last time you were here". So to satisfy her and prove to her it was the right size, I humored her and tried them on.. what do ya know...I left with 2 pairs of size 10 pants! Wowwweeeeeee did this suprise me. My weight has not gone down, but I guess all the work I have been up to has replaced some fat with muscle!
I am very pleased with the downsizing!   Weight Loss Surgery...when its great to be a loser!

Happy happy joy joy! lol

It did feel great Sukie.. Thanks! I was asking the sales lady... "ok..you guys went to vanity sizing didn't you?" LOL But after there I went to walmart and wouldn't ya know it, a 10 fit there too!

being heavy for so long, really plays games with ones mind. I do NOT see myself as slender enough for a size 10...or even a 12 for that matter. Its funny, even now, when I am shopping for or looking at clothing in the regular size department, I feel like others in the area must be thinking, "umm the plus size s are over there lady..."  So odd. Ahhh dysmorphia..   thought I'd never struggle with that...but I do.
