NSV, NSV, NSV for Me!

[MINI-Me 196]

So, it's no secret on here that I'm a Black Friday Fan. Yesterday, we decided to go to the Outlet Mall around 3:00. We did some shopping & got some great deals. We were walking past Coldwater Creek and my husband suggested we go in. (Most items were 60-70% off lowest price!)

So we did and I grabbed a few items in Small and a few things in Medium.

Went to the dressing room and discovered, that everything I picked out was too big! My husband was a big help and kept running around the store finding smaller sizes. The Sales Woman gave me that "crazy girl" look - apparently, I was grinning from ear to ear and floating around the dressing room. I finally told her that I was an 18W in January and now wearing all 4's and 6's. I also shared about my surgery. She gave me an impulsive gigantic hug and almost started crying.

So, I just had to share. I don't believe I wear 4's in most stores, but yesterday, I didn't care. My closet now has size 4 hanging in it.

And by the way ... my husband had so much fun shopping with me, we bought over $200 worth of clothing and he didn't even blink an eye. I got 14 peices of clothes including dresses, skirts, vests, etc. I am so excited. Who ever thought the fat chick would need the smallest size a store sold??????? :)

WOW!!!!! Congratulations and you go girl!!!! I am hoping to have my surgery in February and next year it will be my turn to buy skinny clothes. I can hardly wait. All these fat girl clothes are gone. Thanks for sharing. Need to hear this. I guess you feel wonderful also.

Thanks again and way to go.

Yaaaaaayyyyy!!!!!!!!!!! Mini-me, that's sooooo awesome! What a great story! I love how the salesperson got so excited for you, too! What a great all-around experience. I don't think I've worn a size 4 in my life! :-)

How Fun!!!! I'm soooooo happy for you

I have to say you brought tears to my eyes! Your results are amazing and you have earned every bit of the success. You also scored big time for that amount of money. I bet it is indicative of how much cheaper it is to shop for small sizes then to find nice things in plus size stores. Not fair huh? Good for you and your hubby to experience that victory as a team. YAYAYAY.

It is hard to believe that one year ago I was researching surgeons and going between excited, scared, and denial that this surgery was going to work. It has been an amazing 10 months (today is my 10th month surgiversary)!

Anyone considering this surgery - JUST DO IT!!!

I just paid for my flights and confirmed my surgery dates this past week. I have been nervous, excited and scared but you have helped me calm down a bit. Thank you for your update.

I can not wait to be on the loosers bench too :-D

That is totally awesome! I can't imagine being the smallest size in a store other than Lane Bryant. Thank you for sharing that!
