I'm Down 6 Sizes!!!!



Recommended Posts

Yesterday I got tired of my super baggy pants...and since I wasn't sure of what size to get I went to Walmart (thought since sizes change so fast I don't want to spend a fortune on clothes). I was so surprised that the size 18W slid right on--no "sucking" in or dancing around to get them zipped...I was amazed because pre-banding I was wearing a size 28W...never thought I would be able to wear a smaller size again. I tried to explain this feat to my husband but he just didn't get it. I am excited and needed to share my excitement with people who will understand and join me in this simple celebration!!!

Amazing and congrats. How long did that take? I just got banded yesterday and recently purchased a bunch of new clothes (I'm addicted to shopping so it couldn't wait) I figured I'd have time to wear it anyway. I am so excited to buy smaller clothes, I must admit I did buy a pair of smaller jeans. Can't wait to fit into those.

I was banded on April 26...I decided not to buy things ahead of time becuase I thought it would be more fun to go to a store and be surprised by the new sizes. I will also admit that I will wear the baggy stuff longer than I probably should so when I finally get something that fits I am amazed at how it looks.

yeah!!! Good for you. I actually get a charge out of shopping at Walmart for cloths because I couldn't before!!! I don't know if you have used clothing consignment stores but they are an AWSOME place to find cloths. Everything is in good condition and its all sorted and hung up just like in a regular retail store so it makes it easy to find your size etc. (plus it is a great spot to get rid of your clothing that is too big for you now and get a little cash for it!)

Congrats!
