I got dressed for work this afternoon and my pants were way baggy. I had to go shopping and get something to wear to work. I bought pants a whole size smaller and for the first time in forever I bought shirts in a size Medium. I have been buying Xl to 1x forever. It felt good to go shopping and not go home crying. It made me resolve to stay strong and stick to the diet until I have reached my goal.
I'm stepping in to your post...hope you don't mind.
I went shopping today with my friend and wow.... I can't believe the clothes I bought! Shirts that aren't baggy, pants that don't bag in the butt!
Everything I tried on I felt was too tight (shirts), but in reality, it's been so flipping long since I've worn any shirts form fitting that I was a bit freaked out. My head hasn't registered just yet the changes my body has gone through. This is where my friend came in to play...to assure me things fit properly. It was a GREAT day! Who knew I had a figure under that fat after all (and a nice one if I may say so myself!!)??? :) I even bought some new panties from Victorias Secret Size Medium! No more baggie butt panties either!!
So now I'm even more revved up about starting round 2 in 2 weeks!!!! I "should" hit my goal weight by the end of that round (140-145lbs) and then let the shopping spree repeat! I see a few pairs of Lucky Brand jeans in my future!! :))
I've been fitting into my clothes that I've kept for years for the "I'll lose this weight", I'm down in just 21 days from a size 20 to a size 16 yesterday and those were just a tad loose (probably couldn't fit into a 14 yet)....I'm so happy about your losses and mine and everyone elses....I'm doing 40 days on hhcg soooo hopefully I can be down a few more sizes by then!!!
It's so exciting. This morning I was finally able to clean out my last rubbermaid tub of "clothes that are too small". It's now EMPTY! Everything in my closet FITS me! Just gave away more clothes this morning that are too big for me.
What a great feeling. I'm so excited for everyone doing this!! :)
