2 months out - NSV

[dadici 21]

So I'll be 2 months out Monday. Yesterday I decided to go try on pants, didn't think I would actually buy since my "skinny" pants aren't *that* loose.

Today I'm wearing a brand new pair of size 16s! The last time I was a 16 I was a sophmore in high school. I shopped in the "regular" department - I don't know the last time I even went in the regular department! I was kind of embarrassed to even be over there at first, I felt like people would see me and think "who does that fat girl think she's fooling?"

I'm so excited, I think maybe there was a part of me that didn't really believe the sleeve would work, even though I've been loosing weight - somehow new pants make it real!

I totally know where you are coming from. I felt the same way buying pants and I ended up buying a size 11!! It is a new, wonderful feeling to NOT be shopping in the fat section. Somewhere inside you think you should still be there even though you truly do not.

Great Job wearing a size 16, you ROCK those pants!!

Congrats on the 11 that is awesome! I really want to end up at a 10 I think...it's hard for me to imagine since I've litterally never been anywhere close to that!

I'm short so I would also be thrilled if I could fit into normal petits and not have to get everything hemmed!

I wonder how long that awkward feeling will last? I was seriously blushing as I walked through the department - I'm not sure how long it will take for me to get my nerve up to go into one of the little boutique stores or some place like Gap or whatever. I am so excited to have non-department store shopping options!

Congrats to you!!!
