Default Nice little Wow for me

My jeans have been feeling a little loose, so this morning I went and bought a new pair, I got them in an 18 but wasn't real sure they would fit...well lo and behold they do fit!! Oh my gosh! I can't even remember when would have been the last time I wore a size 18 in pants!! WOW!!

I'm in a stall again so I'm really having to celebrate everything little thing I can to not get too discouraged and today this made me extremely happy!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Hi Nell,
Congrats on the smaller size! I have to agree with the others, you may be in smaller size come Christmas. I put on a pair of pants the other day and they slid down to my knees!! So even if you aren't losing, remember, you are losing issues. I lose weight much slower now, but as long as I keep losing it I am ok.
Good job!!

Our sizes are different from yours, but I went from a 46" to a 30" waist. I bumped back up to 32", where I've been now for 3+ years (hadn't been there since about 1971!) I can reach into a bin or shelf, pull a pair of pants out and buy them knowing they'll fit. (Used to have a 19-1/2" - 20" neck, and now I can buy a 16-1/2" and it fits perfectly!)

Nell, you are going to have so much fun when you finally decide to settle on a size and stock up on it! You may be lost in the stores for a few months as you realize you can't go over to the W side any more, but you'll get used to shopping in the Junior Misses!! This was one of the funnest things to watch Peanut have to deal with!!
