Non-scale victory today!

I just got some new shape-wear in the mail today (my old stuff was at least 2 sizes too big and from before surgery) and tried it on. While I had the new stuff on, I decided to try on some clothes from the back of my closet. I am 25 years old. My highest weight was around 330lbs, and I weighed 310 at surgery. I now weigh 240lbs (down 70 from surgery, 90 from highest weight). I fit into the prom dress I wore to my husband's senior ball. TEN years ago. When I was 15 years old!!! I just had to share!

Awesome! Congrats!!! Wonderful feeling!!!!!!!!!!!!

Isn't that the best feeling! I'm a bit older, but did the same thing with a gown I had worn 10 years ago - the last time I had lost a ton of weight. I weigh more now then I did then, but the gown was big on me. Don't know how that happened but I'll take it! Congratulations!!

Congrats! I love to hear about all the success everyone is having. :)

Put on your prom dress and have a dance with him.

Gmanbat, you're such a romantic softie..........LOVE IT!

TERRIFIC!! Good that you were able to do this while you are young. I wasted too much time as a fat/shy/unworthy feeling person, as my weight went from 275-113-275 repeatedly. Not to mention all those years of my skin being stretched, YUCK!! Hopefully your skin will be fine. I'm so happy for you, keep it up!
