Default Never thought I'd see it...but there it is...

I bought a jammie set (mainly because part of the jammie set was a hoody...coming on to winter, I need ALL the layers I can get!) When I bought it, I bought a medium (10-12) to "shrink into" then I was kicking myself because most of what I'm wearing is LG - XL figuring by the time I shrink into it, it'll be summer and won't need the layers. Tried them on when they arrived and they FIT!! I put on some of my LG & XL clothes and I see what I was doing before...I didn't realize that they don't fit, because I've always dressed baggy (before it was to hide sins...now it's because it's just what I've always done!!) LOL

Yes...the jammies are stretchy...so I wouldn't parade all over town proclaiming to be a "true medium" or a true size 10-12...but you know what...this tag says "medium (10-12)" and for me, that's enough to make my day fabulous!!

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.

Funny you should mention this...before, when I was heavier I wore very little to bed, basically enough that I didn't have to "cover up" in case one of the kids came in in the middle of the night...but not so much that if the doorbell rang that I could answer it without covering up!! LOL

Fast forward...got a new form, yes...however, now I get cold so easily that he rarely ever sees it because I dress in layers (yes...even for bed)...now I could likely bolt out of bed and answer the door and not worry about anyone seeing anything indecent...just likely mismatched!! LOL

But again thank you

Thank you guys for the comments...I was really torn when I had to put them into the washer!! (I dunno...scared they were going to come out and it would all be a bad dream and I really wouldn't fit them anymore! Not sure)

This is enough of a wake up call though to tell me that I need to go through my closet again. The last time I did though, I brought a whole bunch to my mother in law (which is where I brought my first clothes that I shrunk out of) and she looked at them and sadly told me to pass them on...that she was unsure that she would ever get down to that size. It broke my heart...however...she's now using myfitnesspal with my husband and I and is back on track, losing weight, doing well, and seeing that it can be done...just really REALLY hope she sticks with it,
