Wow! I've been in a size 18 for maybe five years and yesterday I bought a pair of size 16 Levis "for when I need them" and came home and tried them on just for fun and they FIT GREAT! It makes the unpleasantness of that first week hurt a little bit less. I know it's a shallow thing to celebrate, but it feels like real progress and just the first step. Now I'm looking forward to buying a pair of size 14s in a few weeks "for when I need them."

The iron in the vitamins still makes me so sick I want to throw up or pass out, though. I need to change vitamins.

Congratulations.

Congratulations! Now buy the 14.

Not shallow at all! I would be (and will be- eek!) the same!

CONGRATS!

That is awesome!

As much as I dream,of a 15/16. You have every right to see how low,you can go. God speed and we will be waiting,for further updates in the future. It has to be feeling so good seeing those changes.??

Thanks so much! It helps. I did this for health reasons, but the size/appearance certainly is a wonderful bonus!!
