      Thanks guys! It's a little disheartening hearing how others sleeved around the same time as me have lost a lot more. Some even around the same age/weight as me. I know everybody's different and losing slowly is still losing, but it makes me think I need to do better.

  2. From squeezing into an ill-fitted size 28 jeans to buying a pair of size 18 jeggings at a mainstream store. Feels AMAZING.

      Congrats! I started same and just got in to size 20 which might be a little big, so I am right there with you!! It is a great feeling! Makes all this worth it!

      Congratulations! I used to hate clothes shopping, now I love it! Just to see how many stores I can shop on off the rack!

  3. When did you guys buy new clothes!?

      I have been every size between my goal weight and my highest weight. Hoping to use those unless I want something for special occasion. Everyday seems like a dress rehearsal digging in my storage for old clothes :)

      I can wear shorts to work and I can't find anything marked down between 12-16 that I could wear that are not daisey dukes! guess I will continue to wear the 18-20s and look for belts!

  4. Sometimes I just want to wear a sign when I'm out that says, "I've lost SIXTY POUNDS. I'm fat but I used to be a lot fatter. So it's fine if I'm buying nutella because gosh darn it, sometimes fat people need nutella too, and I deserve it!"

  7. Isn't it SO frustrating when your doctor's scale is different from yours!?

      my doctor weighs me in and i say say well my scale says...and he says ok we will go by yours. honeslty his scale is 1.8 pounds more, but i weigh myself without clothes and in his office , well , i wear clothes. lucky him. lol

      Hahaha, I try to wear less layers and ALWAYS wear my flats when I go to my doctor's because they're lighter than my sneakers or other shoes. I try to weigh myself with clothes on at home, but sometimes without too...because I feel like that's a more "True" weight. My surgeon always goes "Well, everybody's scale is different. The recordings we have are from my scale" But now they're from the NP's scale too! So it shouldn't count!

      @Sara51692 HA yeah the only bad part is going to home to my scale and waiting for it to catch up to the one int he Dr. office ;)
