Woo hoo - size 18
Well - I reckon it's official - I am a size 18 on top! I've not bought two new tops both size 18, both fit! I thought the first one might have been a fluke!
I haven't been a size 18 since I was about 17!!!
I am so happy right now! 16 here I come!

Wow you are doing great, you've really fallen off that plateau. I'd say you're into every shop now, not restricted to Evans. Eh???

I know - it's freaky - I actually bought one of the tops in next of all places! Haven't tried the bottom half yet though - reckon it might still be Evans for that!

I've been able to get some bottoms in New Look and some tops in Dorothy Perkins, I know its almost Evans.
Another couple of sizes and I'll be there with you, can't complain though I started at a 32

Actually I hadn't thought of giving Dot Perkins a go - that might be on tomorrow's list to do! Thanks! I started at a 28/30 (well 30 if I'm honest with myself!) so I'm pretty happy too.
You have done so well - you must be over the moon!

Wow. Congrats. An 18. Just recently I went and tried on some shirts and I am now in an 18/20. I had to re-check the tag to make sure there wasn't an mistake. What a great feeling. See you at size 16.

sooo kewl shereeks, i love our shrinkingness (thats a word right?)
i went to cotton ginny tonight, went straight to the plus section, my mind still has not caught up to my body, anyway, ended up going into the regular clothes sizes as i could wrap the small plus sizes around me a few times, ended up with small and medium bottoms and medium and large tops - holly smokes - sorry dont mean to take from your wow moment.......they are so exciting, i was having a bummed day until the shopping moment, and when i get on here and see others wow moments its makes my day, thanks for sharing...you are doing so amazing.....how is food for you? do you struggle with what to eat and not to eat, or have you got a meal routine down? i love to hear about your progress cuz our dates are so close...tell me all
