I couldn't fathom it either, believe me.   When I tried on the Eddie Bauer shirt size small and it was TOO BIG, I almost passed out in the dressing room from excitement!!  Then, I quickly rallied and told my hubby "Get me an XS!!!!"    LOL!!
BTW,  I started at a tight size 24 and 3XL shirt

I found myself boiling some clothes oon the stove the other day.  They did not shrink one little bit.  I had to laugh. Boiling? It's a brand new world.

That's great, Marie -- well, sorry your size 6 jeans are too big -- but you have to feel great about being such a little "itty bitty" -- I can't imagine a size 6 for myself -- I'm looking forward to having a 1 in from of my sizes instead of a 2.  You are an inspiration, for sure!

Boots sound awesome......XS shirt...........more awesomeness!

Thanks for continuing to post -- we need you and the other vets to keep us motivated!
