WOW moment.

I have lost almost 130lbs since 9/17/07.  I have gone from a tight size 24 to....................... drum roll please........................... a size 12.  I bought 2 pair of jeans and a pair of dress capri's in a size 12.  I still hold them up and think..............  No way will my butt fit in these........  then it does.  It is getting expensive dressing however I have become a shop-a-holic. 

CONGRATS!!!!! that is awesome! i can't wait to start dropping sizes! i have lost over 100lbs but i am still holding on to my upper sizes....so can't wait to become a shopaholic! i am so proud of you.... have a great day! hugs Kim

Are you holding on to them as comfort items..............  I can't imagine after loosing that much weight your clothes aren't tooooooooooo big.  Anyway,  thanks for the confidence boost.  Maybe I need to save my clothes for you:)

i started out at 408 and now about 294....i was wearing anywhere from a 30/32 5x to pants 3x-30...so some things i never dried...or stretched them....now i can dry the clothes normally...and they are not stuck to me...they are baggy yes....and i probably do need to go the next size down....i say i am a good 3x now in shirts and 24 in pants....maybe....lol when the clothes start fallin off of me...i may have to go get a few....but budget wise i can't....so i am content with what i have...kids have more needs than i do....and with 2 years of fighting cancer and no work...just been thrifty....so thats why i say i am holding on to them.....lol one day i will shed them soon....althou i have seen many lose that much and jump major sizes...so far i am not in that area yet...but i am almost 5 months out....so not doin bad at all..... lol ok now i am rambling...i am bored outta my bum today....i over did things this weekend...and doc is making me rest.... like that is going to happen...daughters huge track meet is today at madison grant and then the other 2 babies have baseball and softball games.....hehe

So happy you are doing well.  Keep us informed about your sizes.  I get sooooooooo excited not only formyself but others.  Tell your daughter good luck at the track meet.

You need to come to the next clothing exchange so you can get some clothes that fit you.  They are free!!!!

LOL...i know i need to...i wanted to go to the last one...i was still really new on here and didn't really know exactly how it was done....and got some of the info late....i am just starting to drive some....once i kick this feelin bad stage i will be good to go! althou my favorite thing to say...even on my really bad days....hey ....i am cancer free....lol  but thanks for the info...i will try next time...it will definitely help out and i can get rid of my bigger things too big hugs

Congrats Kim on your weight loss and new size.  I am right there with you regarding becoming a shop-a-holic.  I love to go shopping even if I don't buy anything.  I tried on some outfits this weekend and they were OK but I didn't "love" them so I didn't buy anything.  At one point I would have bought them just because I found something that fit.  If they fit I bought them rather I "loved" them or not.  Isn't it fun shopping for size 12's. 

GOOD FOR YOU!!!  I remember the days of getting the biggest size on the rack and hoping it fit good enough!!!   Keep that shopping in check!!!  You look beautiful without all those clothes that won't fit too long anyway!
