My Progress!!

Nov 01, 2009

Okay so its been a while, but I just wanted to share some really great news! This saturday I weighed in at 225! I have 60lbs till my goal. I am at the half way point.

This weekend we went to the mall, we went into Lane Bryant to look at clothes. My husband made a comment after seeing the size sign that I wouldnt be shopping here much longer. Lane Bryant caters to 16 - 28. We went inside and I tried on a sweater, size 18. Too big. Okay, size 16. Too big. My next thought.. No WAY!

So after getting the shell shock of my favorite store being too big, we decided to go into the little girls store next door. Fossil. We looked around and they had this really cute top in an XL. So I looked at him and said should I try it on? Next thing you know the nice young man was showing me to a dressing room.

I started to change when my husband came back with a skirt, he threw over a skirt for me to try on. It was a really cute wool skirt, XL.

To my suprise, it went on. So did the shirt. Not only did it go on but it wasnt too tight. I laughed for about 5 minutes before coming out of the dressing room. Both of us started to tear up from me being able to put these on and they looked great!  So for the next 2.5 hours we went into every clothing store on the first floor of the mall and tried on clothes. It has been 17 years. The hard part now is not shopping. 

I cant wait until the next time we go into the mall.

See ya!
Melanie
