OMG! Clothes are actually fitting!

[SoCal_Runner]

I had to share this! Went to a department store today because I've noticed my pants are getting too loose. I was hoping they'd have a top I liked in size L, since I used to wear XL. No luck finding it in L, so I just grabbed a M, not expecting much. And guess what?! It actually fit!! You know I bought more colors, lol. Then a different brand, also in M, and it fit too! I almost cried right there in the store... happy tears, of course! I started the meds around mid-December at 231 lbs, and weighed in at 185 today.

Thanks for posting! Just a reminder, no discussing non-approved stuff or trying to sell medications. New to this all myself!

I totally get that feeling! I think I even did a little happy dance at a discount store when I squeezed into a size 14! I started back in September wearing a tight size 20.

That's awesome! Funny enough, I had a similar experience just yesterday! Needed something for my kid's graduation. Grabbed XL and L, thinking maybe the L would fit. XL? Way too big. L still too big. Ended up buying a dress... in a medium! I was stunned. Congrats on the weight loss!

Great job, you look fantastic. I've only gone from a 3X to a 2X so far, but I'm getting there! Even that felt great when I tried on a new top.

First off, major congrats! Second, you HAVE to go all out with a costume this Halloween!!

That's amazing! I can't believe I am fitting in mediums now!

I've been working from my house for the past half year and was at my heaviest. I had a meeting at work that I had to go to and I tried to wear some shorts that were stretched. I tried to fit into my 36" pants and the button was far away! I went to a store and got some stretch jeans. That's when I talked to the doc about meds. Now, after a couple months, I can fit into all my clothes except for the skinnier ones from way back when. The 36" pants are loose now! I love not having tight clothes.

Those glasses look fab on you!

I know that feeling. Never thought I'd hear the word 'skinny' applied to me!

 

[RXPete]

Congrats, you look great! I'm also hoping to go from XL to M someday soon!

You go girl! So cute. I'm 67. One year on this journey... down 50 lbs! I wear leggings all the time now to show off my gorgeous, slimmer legs! lol!

You look so good!!

Congratulations! And I totally agree with [user]Vial-Done[/user] – you need a super fun costume for Halloween this year!!!

Thanks, everyone! It's so motivating to hear from others on the same path.

I love hearing these stories! It's not just about the numbers on the scale, but how you FEEL. Keep up the great work!

I saw someone else mention they started around 330lbs and are now down to 248! That is so inspiring! It's possible, people!

I agree with

Slow and steady weight loss is key. Be sure to stay hydrated and get enough protein. Protein shakes are your friend!
