lianna 3 Posted November 5, 2006 I had to buy a new coat today! My old coat is a Women's 2X and is now completely too big for me. I tried on several different styles and ended up getting a long black wool coat in a SIZE 12!!!! I am so tickled, I love this darn band!!! It is so great to shop in regular sizes and have so many choices!!! Just wanted to share a happy moment! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ralheit 1 Posted November 5, 2006 Contratulations. How great is that? I finally got back into my old wool coat that I haven't been able to wear for 2 years. That felt great, but I can't wait to be where you are and actually shop for a new coat in the regular sizes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GayleTX 1 Posted November 5, 2006 I finally broke down last year and bought a new coat after many years....kept putting it off - just knew I'd lose weight some day! It was end of the year clearance so never wore it. Now this year it just wraps around me. Soooo....here I am again with no coat. But you think I'm complaining? Heck, no!!! I'm too happy to have lost 100 lbs to complain about anything!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kat817 19 Posted November 5, 2006 I got my coat out to wear the other morning when we went to cut firewood, and it is huge!!! I had on old clothes, wood cutting is dirty work. My loving DH told me, that with my baggy jeans and coat I looked homeless. I guess that means he wants me to go shopping!!! Congrats on a size 12---great work---good for you!!!

lianna 3 Posted November 5, 2006 Thanks everyone! I think I get so used wearing the newer things that fit, that when I pulled out that coat it was almost overwhelming the difference in size I was last fall. These little moments are what really drive it home for me!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
