May Lisa...Good for you!!

I can feel your excitement...and I can relate as well! I just got out of my size 12's and into a 10 jeans for the first time since before high school!!

And I started at 10 pounds higher than your highest

...so I KNOW that thrill...you'll be there so soon...you're so close...

No one knows that feeling of putting on something and having it FIT after wearing clothes for years we wouldn't be caught dead in now!! New body, new outlook, new life!!

Keep on doin' what you're doin'...Congratulations!!

Congratulations!

I didn't think of clothes sizes as a goal. Right now I'm just hoping to get to 199! I'll be singing and dancing then! It's been about 2 years since I've been there. Actually it's been two years since I've been below 210, so I'm doing a little dance now. I can hardly wait until I'm a size 16 again. Thanks for the inspiration.

Way go Go LisaMay!

I can totally relate to your feeling of happiness being able to fit into a smaller size. I was a size 16 over the summer and today.. I slipped on a pair of size 12 Old Navy jeans and they zipped right up with no problem!!! I bought them new last year and assumed they'd fit. When I got them home I could not pull them up over my hips!!! So to get them zipped and comfortable.. MY GOD I could have cried. Now I cannot wait until they become lose and I need a belt!! Now that will make me smile even more.
