YEAH.....NSV
I went to work on Thursday and had the same baggy pants I have been wearing because I refuse to buy clothes, only to wear them for a month or so and then need to buy more. Anyhow, one of my co-workers had given me some uniform pants (I'm a nurse) that were a large a few days prior and I told her there was no way I was going to fit into them. (I was a 3X prior to surgery). Anyhow, I decided I would try them on and low and behold they fit.....I was amazed and boy they looked pretty darn good. Its amazing how many sizes you go down when you lose 86 lbs. I haven't been this small in more than 10years and that was only for a short period of time. I would like to thank all of you from the bottom of my heart. Even when I was denied for surgery, you all kept my head up and told me to fight for the surgery, which I did and boy am I glad I decided to appeal their decision. I can't wait to get into a medium now but my next goal is losing 100lbs, which is only 14 lbs away....thanks again.
