OMG!  I went shopping this weekend, and I was able to fit into a coat and a sweater in size large in the MISSES department!!!!  I haven't fit into Misses in I don't know, almost 20 years?  Even when I could cram myself into something way back when (in late high school), it was a tight XL.  I honestly can't remember a time when I was a Misses large- it was too long ago!

Granted, most of the stuff I have been fitting into is a 1X, but it's awesome to know that I fit into a Large in some things.  Yay!!!!

Way to go!

I just started fitting into size large shirts (I'm tall and bottom heavy, so I have the top half of someone 20 lbs lighter) and it was incredibly exciting!

Keep up the great work.

My weight loss became really exciting when I was able to shop in all the regular size stores and say good-bye to the plus sizes FOREVER!

Woo Hoo!!! I know you must be feeling good today! Congrats!

Congrats.
I have a question for you and maybe you can help me. I noticed you said you are bottom heavy, well I am too and wondering at what point or how many lbs lost before you notice the weight starting to come off of the bottom? It is always the last place for me until I hit a certain point. I will be ok to be able to wear my bottoms for the next 3 months if I can, it will save me on buying new jeans. I will have to say goodbye to all of my dress clothes which can get costly but well worth it.
