Tried On Clothes, I Cried

  • Popular Post

So I finally decided to bare trying on clothes after losing so far 57 pounds. I went to Torrid yesterday since they were having a buy one get one half off sale. I tried on this dress http://www.torrid.com/torrid/Clothing/Dresses/Casual//Black+And+Electric+Blue+Color+Block+Maxi-536490.jsp and another maxi dress. I used to wear a size 4 (26/28 )in this store and now I'm down to a size 2 (18/20) when it comes to dresses. I was so excited I started crying thinking about how when I was bigger it was harder to find something and how far I've come. It felt really good fitting into those dresses. So now I have two cute dresses for my trip to Europe next month. Here's a pic of the other dress I bought. Can't wait to see more results and enjoying my new life.

I would have cried too. You look adorable. What an awesome reward for your hard work! Only others like us can really understand the life altering situation that was for you. Going from lock up to free so to speak.

you look great-love that smile...(and your new dress!)

I love both dresses. Rock it girl!

You look tight girl ! Keep up the good work :)

You go girl!!!!! Congratulations! So happy for you!

You look great. Careful by next month it might be too big. I cried the first time I shopped at Target, American Eagle and Gap aka normal sizes. Keep on going you are doing great :)

Congrats. You look beautiful girl. I LOVE that dress!!!! I tried on a pair of capeis for thefirst time today. I was buying a 26/28 - these were 20w and fit. Had a cry myself. Im terrified to try on clothes right now. If I try them on and for whatever reason ( ex name brand) they are still a 26/28 like I was wearing Im afraid I'll give up and stop trying. So Im holding off another 25 lbs before I try. Im down 49 lbs today.

PS. The smile looks good on you too. Keep smiling

That's great I can't wait until I'm able to say I bought a smaller size that will be great. You look great by the way keep it up.
