My hubby took me to the store yesterday because I needed a spring jacket. A wind breaker..Anyway he kept bringing me size large jackets and they were too big...Finally he said..I just can't believe this your a medium jacket...I said, obviously in this style at least..

Shaking his head he said he never expected any of these things to happen and the fact that I take a smaller size jacket then him, has just floored him.....

I love it when he is shocked at the new me emerging!!!

I totally get the idea. I bought two pair of size 20 "skinny" jeans off of a friend. I thought " I will just put them back until they fit". No way those little things would fit me. Well one pair fits nicely and the other is slightly BIG! Ok, I realize a size 20 is not small...but when you come from a size 28 it is. ( esp. since I haven' t hit 18/20 in about 15+ years!) It is crazy. I still gravitate towards the larger sizes forgetting that I don't need them anymore. That is so awesome for you RJ, you are now his "little woman"!!! LOL

RJ I was tickled pink when I ordered a pair of 18/20 capris from Walmart and they FIT! Seriously, it won't be too long until I am out of plus size which totally BLOWS MY MIND! Of course the down side is how fast I need new clothes and my budget isn't cooperating....LOL

I think for me it has kinda gotten out of control. I had gotten clothes up to 2 sizes smaller before I reached those sizes. I just bought what I liked or loved...Any way there are ways of collecting clothes at reasonable prices......

I remember the day they told me at Pennington's that they no longer had clothes that fit me. That I would have to go elsewhere... I just looked stunned because I was in the biggest size they had at the time and was wondering where I would get clothes to fit me soon..That was so scary....

I kept a couple of shirts. In fact the one I wore to the seminar......It is my badge of honor and some day I will post a pic. of me in it......

Yesterday I found a size 16 in drawer that I refused to throw away and they finally fit! I had to ask my hubby to check the tag when I was wearing them :-)

[RJ'S/beginning 5,358]

@@millergirl314 When I wore my first pair of size 16 pants I kept saying over and over again to my poor hubby..You know these are size 16 right!!!!?

Finally he told me to give it a break....

Congrats on your wonderful success! Next is 14....hehehehehe

[millergirl314 168]

Thank you RJ:-)

Way to go on smaller sizes to everyone. It feels awesome however one does go broke..LOL..I discovered size 12...snug but stocking up on sales. Nothing feels as good as getting out of the plus sizes. I started out wearing 20-22...it's awesome.
