Today I decided that I needed some new jeans and bras because my old ones were too big, so I stopped in Lane Bryant since I had a coupon. The saleswoman was very nice and helpful, but I was having a heck of a time finding my size (I'm a 14 now). As I was trying on a coat, she looked at me and said "You know, you're going to be too small for Lane Bryant pretty soon". I couldn't help but smile!

Yay! You need to hit a regular shop now, Girl!Great going! Karen

yay no more $45 plain colored t-shirts. ever notice how expensive the clothes are in plus size. my friends come back from lunch break with $4 dresses from kohls or tj max. never in plus size have i ever found anything $4 at a dress shop. good for you. can't wait to feel what you are feeling.

@ Jenn1214 congrats on the NSV!!! @ roeroe I absolutely agree plus size clothing is expensive ( I can't afford to remain fat.....lol). I often think about when my size actually does change (its taking forever to go down even one size) how I am going to afford to buy new cloths, as I am currently in a financial bind. I think they charge us so much because of the extra material?!?!?!?

Yay!! Great job Jenn. Yeah, I think it may be time for you to move out of Lane B and into the regular sized clothes stores. This is a great NSV.

Ms. Lady, I am watching the clearance racks at stores now for 18, 16 and 14s. Just the other day at Stein Mart I got a cute spring/summer dress marked down from $68 to $3.95!!!! in a size 14. I have no doubt I will be out of my 22s and into a 14 by next spring/summer. It is the only way I can figure out how to clothe myself on my fixed income while moving through the sizes. I am trying to only buy a few things in each size and shopping only the clearance racks. I hope when I get to each size I won't be in them long enough to need much.

That is Awesome ! ! ! Keep up the Great Work... :hurray:

That is awesome. I love that feeling. I've been plateaued for 2 months, but something must be happening because yesterday I bought size 12 jeans. I was so happy! I was like I guess I'm officially out of plus sized clothes now. YEEHAAH
