I'm new to this thread but have been visiting the forum for a while. I usually don't post a lot but have been doing it more and more recently because I think I need the support of others going through the same things. I have been losing about 1/2 to 1 lb a week and its been a struggle as I see others in my group having lost much much more than me. Especially as it seems the scale has been sort of stuck for a while. Today I went into Lane Bryant. I have been resisting shopping because I refuse to pay that much for something I hopefully won't wear very long, but this means all my clothes are really big on me. I was unable to wear a 28 there when I began my journey. Today I tried on the pants and the lady told me they run kind of small. So I tried a 24, and they were falling off of me. Then a 22, again they were too big. So she got me a 20 and......I actually got them on my body!!!!! Its been years since I could fit in a Lane Bryant 22. Granted I could only fit into them and zip them up, but still they went on my body. It made me hope that even though the number seems stuck that I am at least getting smaller. :rolleyes2:

Thats awesome! Stick to it! It doesnt matter how fast you run the race as long as you make it to the finish line!

It is such a great feeling when you fit in a smaller size!

I have found that I must try on clothes instead of just holding them up to judge the size or thinking I know what size I am. It takes time for the brain to adjust.

Don't worry that the weight is coming off too slow as long as it is coming off! The smaller size is proof you are shrinking. Wooo Hooo for you!

what an inspiration. I am losing slowly and am scheduled for my first fill in two weeks and I love to hear about NSV's that other people are having! Great job!

Congrats!! I love fitting into clothes that I couldn't wear previously. Even clothes that I bought that became too tight - I love getting back into them. Congrats!!! Keep up the great work
