sorry, I'm bragging again!

I actually burst into tears at a clothing shop yesterday.  This is a beautiful shop in my neighbourhood - used to go in when I was close to 300 pounds and buy scarves and accessories, because I couldn't fit into the lovely clothes. 

Well, I went in yesterday and took some size XL clothes to try on, crossing my fingers.  The saleslady said she'd grab some smaller sizes for me, just in case.  Would you believe I ended up in a size MEDIUM dress (I will admit it fit because it is a tent style - lol).  The most beautiful dress ever. The other clothes I bought were large.

As I paid at the cash I welled up and started crying.  Embarrassing, but also pretty sweet.

Hope you all are having some sweet NSV wows also.

Congratulations. You just keep bragging because you are doing an awesome job with your tool.  Sounds like you got yourself a nice new Easter dress - maybe you can post a pic when you wear it and show it off!

Enjoy your sweet success!

You deserve to shout your w0ws from the roof top Lisa. Must have been a great feeling, especially with the sales lady offering to pick up some smaller sizes.
