I am a Silpada Designs rep.......if you're unfamiliar, it's an exquisite line of sterling silver jewelry....a couple of years ago I bought the most gorgeous sterling and pearl watch....and it never fit right. Too tight and just looked silly...I was upset because one, it was expensive...and two, I just loved it!

I've noticed my rings are loose, so I decided to try the watch yesterday....AND IT FIT PERFECTLY....hung right at the top of my hand like it's supposed to!

Soooooooooo......I have an ass the size of Texas,

but my wrists are NORMAL........

Victory comes with winning small battles.....and I'll take a well-fitting wristwatch as a WIN!

WOO HOO.....just listed a bunch of my harley clothes and riding gear on ebay because it's waaaaaaaaay too big.....which, of course, means all new FUN and SMALLER things next Spring!

I found myself sprinting down the stairs the other morning. I used to grip the railing as I would slowly go down the steps in the morning, each of my joints creaking and aching. I laughed when I realised what I had just done. What a wonderful feeling!

I knew that I have been getting smaller even though my scale has not been moving much.

So this weekend I was looking for something nice to wear since I have a wedding to go to in a few weeks.

Go and grab a pair of dress pants (size 22) put them on and they fell right off.

It was great. Typically I wear pants that have an elestic waist since I hate buying new clothes and they sort of shrink with you. Well went to the store and grabed some 20's yeah no they didn't fit either. Oh yeah I was able to get into a size 16. Yippi

I even bought a pair of jeans. lol

and I am down 35 pounds since being banded March 13, 2008

My shoes won't stay on my feet... They are slides and that is what they do . Slide right off. These are shoes that when my feet swelled they hurt. Now I can hardly keep them on... :tt2:

Funny you mention that....I wear Vans Classics most of the time (80's girl, what can I say?)....I've always worn a 9.....had to buy a 8.5 last night, the I'm slopping out of the nines.....now I feel kind of bad, I didn't realize my feet were fat......JK.....anything smaller is GOOD!

Wearing a SIZE TWELVE today.......haven't been in that size since the Carter Administration!

It's a good day!

Yay, Harleygirl!

I too am wearing a size I hadn't seen in forever! It's so exciting, i love it when hubby asks, "Are those new?" (speaking of new jeans or other clothing) and i can honestly say, "nah, it's old, i just can get back into them!

Today, when I got out of the shower, the bath towel fit all the way around me. I don't mean, just the top part that I tuck under my arms, I mean the whole towel. Yipeeee! Did I mention that it was a normal sized bath towel and not a BEACH towel!!

Not my first NSV, but I am excited about it.

We went to an amusement park and I fit on all the rides!!

WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I work at a dentist office and its been 6-7 months since i've seen a lot of my regular patients and they are all flipping OUT!!!!

I started making a list of all the funny things they say to me...

Theres the standard

"Where did you go!"

and a couple of

"Do you have to run around the shower now just to get wet?"

and a very unique

"Keep losing and your honey will have to shake the sheets to find you"

so far my favorite is

"Don't fall through your pants leg and hang your self!"

oh yea...I guess you can tell we live in the south!!!

I just blush and say thanks for noticeing....:biggrin:
