          That must have felt great! I keep going to the store to see when I'll be the next size down, but have only found one pair of pants so far in 18s that fit.

          On a related note, I pulled out a bunch of old clothes last night from college that I haven't been able to wear and I now have 5 new pair of jeans and 6 pairs of shorts that fit me!

          Also in the mix, was a pair of 28s. Not sure how those got in there, since I cleaned all of the larger sizes out and sold them or gave them to charity. But for the heck of it, I put them on. For some reason it was extremely funny and I just laughed and laughed. I would suggest that everybody keep something like this. It really can put in perspective how far you've come.

                Thank you guys for all the great posts. I went back to the store and bought three pairs of pants today and a funky striped purse. My sister went with me and she gave me the OK for the pants. You guys are right about L.B. being kinda expensive, but sometimes they have good coupons, which I had. I can't wait to shop at New York Style, or Express or something.

                Oh, for those wondering, my little girl is doing great. Her mesh started pealing so that means her skin is healing. WE have a dr. appt. tomorrow morning, I'll let you guys know what he says.
