Laura that is great news. It feels good to put on something that has been collecting dust in the back of your closet. I am sure there will many more outfits like that to come. Pat your self on the back girlfriend, you are working that tool.

Congras on buying "normal clothes" I too have broken into the other side. I went into Harry Rosen the other night, The sales staff were falling all over themselves to help me. I tried on a Canali, Armani, Boss, Versace, Zenga, and Dolce & Gabbana. Funny, when i went in there 7 months ago, they "coldly" directed me to the made to measure dept. I LOVE THIS!!!!!!

Woo-hoo congrats, Laura! That must feel awesome

I must have suitcases full of clothes that I've bought over the years which I'm dying to get into. I can't wait!

That is such a great feeling! I am happy for you, Laura! Congrats!
I love getting out the old clothes and trying them on, of course a lot of them still only get up to mid-thigh and won't go any higher, but someday!

In maintenance... now I'm yo-yoing up and down 10 lbs or so. I'm trying to find out how to stay at a set weight, it's rough.
