butterfly_gal 151 Posted June 23, 2013 So u just have to post this because I know you will all understand. I am in desperate need of clothes for work that are not falling off me. I went to Goodwill because I can't justify spending lots of money on clothes that I will only wear for a month or so if best. I went and really didn't know what size I needed. I grabbed a couple sizes and went to the dressing room. Long story short. I fit in a 22! I was so elated! I went from a size 30 pants only 3 months ago, to a 22! And actually, I'd say a 20 in a few weeks. The 22 were not tight at all. Sorry, I just had to share because I know you will all understand! I can't remember a time that I had to go down a size, and not go up... 12 Vixynne, mytime2shine, Oliver's Mom and 9 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NancyDec20 212 Posted June 23, 2013 LOL I had to finally break down and buy new scrubs.. cuz of the comments.. those look like your older sisters hand me downs they were so big..and those look like a dress on you..and when are you going to buy some new scrubs.. those are falling off.. so I broke down..and was so shocked at the size I had to buy.. I still bought a size bigger.. cuz I wasnt believing what I was seeing. Im like I dont wear a large.. no way im bigger than that.. turns out im not. I hold up the clothes and im like those look small for me.. but omg they fit.. weird mind games lol... best of luck to you 1 Ah0505 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TJL 222 Posted June 23, 2013 Congrats how wonderful for you. I totally understand, I'm only 5 weeks out, but I've lost 31 lbs, and everything looks baggy on me, I'm having a hard time keeping some of my pants up. however, I refuse to buy new clothes just yet, I can sew and plan on taking some of them in, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Private Sleever 50 Posted June 23, 2013 I hear you. I tried to hold off on buying new clothes for as long as possible. I was able to camouflage my baggy clothes for a few months. But when I did buy some, I couldn't believe how many sizes I lost. I didn't buy much because doc sad I'd come down another 2 or 3 sizes in another 3 months a the rate i' losing. Unbelievable!!!!
