I did the Shimmy Shimmy Shake!!!

Last night I was on a mission. I wanted to wear jeans to work today so I dug in my closet and pulled out every pair of jeans that I had. Honey I gave away 13 pairs of jeans last night!!! :D :D I would try on a pair, run to the mirror, see that they were too big -- then the music would play in my head!! At first it was very faint and then it got louder and louder and that's when I would do the Shimmy Shimmy shake until the jeans fell off my body!!! I was cracking up so hard and making such a ruckus my husband had to come upstairs to make sure I hadn't completely lost my mind!:lol: :lol: :lol: I told him my "dilemma" and he was like, "Well I guess you have to go shopping then!" You don't have to tell me twice!;) ;) As soon as I get off work this afternoon I'm making a B-Line to the nearest Ross [my favorite store in the world] and buy me some cheap jeans cause I don't plan on being in a size 16 for long. Heck I may even buy me some 14s and 12s . . . well maybe not the 12s but it sure feels good thinking that I can buy some and get into them in a few months!

I'm soooooooooo glad I got this sleeve!!! It has really been a life saver. I used to take 5 pills a day and now I only take 1 pill a day and it's at the lowest dosage!!! Praise God!!!

Just wanted to share my little happy story with you all!! Take care!! :)

Haha that sounds like so much fun! I bet it felt great, and giving all the clothes away and getting new ones sounds even more fun!!! Congrats, the sleeve is like a gift to ourselfs that keeps giving! :)

Congrats! And Ross has become my favorite store now too! I can always find something on the clearance rack. My advice would be also to definitely check out the dresses. The are usually super cheap and even if you lose 10-15 lbs you can still wear it :) . . . I've gave away so many clothes it's almost bittersweet. It's (finally) fun to shop again. But you don't wear the clothes for too long. Congrats again! :)

Fantastic!!! I remember when I finally had to give away my whole closet because of the loss. I was wearing sad, baggy clothes and I looked terrible. I learned my lesson, though. DON'T BUY MORE THAN A COUPLE OF ANYTHING! Once you start to lose, you will be buying new clothes every 4-6 weeks. It's awesome and irritating all at the same time.

Congrats to you!

Whoo Hoo! congrats!

P.s. I LOVE ROSS TOO :)

OOOOHHHHHHH what fun!!!! :high5: I can't wait!!! Was it really as much fun as I think it was? Dear Lord, I hope so! :amen:

:roll: By the way do you remember that song,:music: or did your "older sister" play it? :wink_smile:

Keep up the good times. You deserve it!!!:dance:

DO THE SHIMMY SHIMMY SHAAAKE! hahah you had me laughing! Great job!

Yay!!!! That's awesome! If you like skinny jeans, I would say try Forever 21 they have a plus size section and I just bought 2 pair of size 16's for $12.50 a piece.

WHAAAATTTT!!! Forever 21 I love that store. Every time I go in there I head straight for the accessories cause I didn't think they had anything to fit me. I'm going there this weekend!!!! Thanks for the tip!

they have cute stuff! And reasonable and trendy (unlike Torrid!) . . . go online and look at thier stuff. It's forever21.com . . . and then click on faith (that's their plus size line). Just know no refunds, just exchanges :)
