That's awesome. I did something similar many years back during one of my short periods of weight loss success. I was leaving work and leaned over to put my sneakers on and crashed the bridge of my nose into the edge of my desk! Badges of honor!

I lost a bunch of weight several years ago (of course, it's back with its whole family this time) and there was no shame in going to a "gently used" store. I bought clothes throughout my entire loss at one of these shops. I still have many of the items (like shift dresses and jeans that don't lose their style) and I can't wait to go closet shopping! What are some favorite sites? Mine are Newport News, Forever 21, and NY & Company.

Anyone else doing this? I am about midway through the process of getting my sleeve and I've spent HOURS looking at the new styles for fall and winter! It's so exciting to picture myself happy and stylish and working the single-digit-sized clothes! And don't get me started on hairstyles! I find that looking at websites for wigs (yes, WIGS!) gives me a lot of ideas for styles that might work for me once I set my inner skinny girl free! Wheeee!
