I had an interesting experinece yesterday.  As a reminder, I lost over 70 lbs with a band before I revised to a sleeve. I've lost about 25 since then...

Back on Feb. 29th, I bought a size 14 dress from Talbot's that was a little snug on me.  I bought it specifically to wear to a wedding next weekend.  I thought, since I had lost some more weight I should try it on.  Yesterday I did.  It was only a little loose and I felt that I looked frumpy and ugly in it.  Because I bought it in February, I thought for sure that I would not be able to find one in a smaller size.  Long story short, I did!!  

Here I am in the 14 (ignore the sad face and no makeup):


Here I am in the size 12:


Just goes to show you how the right fit in clothing makes all the difference.

 Pics have to be uploaded to a site like this one (OH) or photobucket then copied into the body of the message.  There is no pic seen here.

Cute dress!  Hopefully the size 12 was on sale or you were able to exchange!
