    New Size

    Went to the thrift store today to buy a couple of shorts everything else is too big (that feels good to say that) and I am now from a size 16 to size 14 , I couldn't believe it I had to try on a couple of more shorts and pants to make sure and it's true, I was telling my daughter soon I will be wearing her size 10's

      Woo hoo!! Way to go!!

      You're right ...you probably will be borrowing her clothes in the not too distant future! I mentioned that to my daughter last night, about me borrowing her clothes someday -- I don't think she was as thrilled about that as when we started sharing shoes. (I'll give her a break for a while yet... after all, I'm old and she's a teenager!)

      Besides the shorts and pants, don't forget to buy some smaller shirts as you shrink down!

          That's really great! MY husband grabbed the loose fabric on my exercise shorts the other day and told me he can remember when they fit me tight. I wish I had measured my thighs when I first started, I think they are really shrinking!

                    Congratulations on the new smaller size! What a nice surprise for you! I love those kind of surprises. Shopping definitely becomes more fun as you shrink.

                      Whoohooo...good for you!!!
                      I just found out a month ago that I could get into a 16 now, I was still wearing my drawstring denim shorts from last summer that were 18's. I hate shopping...before I could never find anything because they weren't big enough and now its hard to find something that is small enough. rofl Of course I take the latter as my hardship in life. lol

                      Congratulations to you!

                      Hugs, Mel
