so, i've dropped some weight and the people at work are making fun (in a joking way) of how my clothes are looking...

i broke down and bought a few dresses from LB online. i figured i'd order them small and i will shrink into them.

it fits ... in fact, it is roomy.

i went from a 6x :embarassed: to a 3x ... OMG!!!! :confused:

Good job. Isn't it exciting when you go down a size! I went down to a size 22 and I'm very happy. Now I'm looking at 20s. Good luck!

Hi!

My big NSV- I bought a sweater at a normal, everyday store the other day!!! It is a n X-L, but still it felt great. My new jeans are a 16P (plus which is bigger than a regular 16).

So... I am thrilled and motivated to keep it going!!!

That is so awesome that is a huge difference. Congratulations to you!

Would be nice to start a clothing swap. I mean I am already down a size as well. I am going to keep wearing them because I hate to buy clothes when I know they too will have to be replaced!

Yikes, they cost so much but I guess when the grocery bill drops there is room for more shopping. Too bad for me I have a hubby and step child that eat thier body weight daily so it really just means that they eat more of what I would have eaten! So sad!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
