Before surgery, I wore a 22W or so, or a 2X. My surgery was 10 weeks ago.
I went to Ross today to find something to wear for tomorrow. Nothing fancy, but I didn’t want to wear sweats.
So I go in and try on a size 18 skirt/blouse set. I swam in it.
I tried on a size 16 dress, and it fit loosely.
I tried on a size 14 pants, and they fit and weren’t tight.
HOLY COW!!!
I ended up just buying a shirt, though.
Woooo!
I can’t believe you didn’t buy them just because. I would have seriously considered it!
It’s a great feeling isn’t it?
wow, i’m glad to hear things are going well.
WOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOO 
they fit, but they didn’t look good. I don’t have the money to buy things “just because” at the moment.
Kick ass!
Post-weight loss shopping is always the best feeling.
WOW - that’s fantastic! Congrats!
All right! Way to go Opal!
Glad to hear you’re doing well!
WOW! that’s really cool! Congrats!
Opal, hon, I got some of those swishy kind, ya know, with the elastic waist, that fall away from the waistband, kinda like a skirt. I did that when I was upsizing, actually, but they look pretty and are not so fitting that they show everything. 
P.S. Come borrow some of my stuff, now that we are the same size !!!
That’s wonderful, Opalcat! Congratulations!
In your shoes, I think I’d go ‘shopping’ just to try things on and enjoy the thrill. 
Doesn’t cost anything to try stuff on!
Great news, Opal. Shopping is hell when you loathe your body size. Nothing like having to go back for a smaller size, huh?
oh yeah!
way to go Opal!
Congrats! I hope to be doing the same in a couple more months!!
That’s awesome. Congrats.
How much have you lost?
I applaud you.
I saw Opal on Saturday. She looks like she’s half gone! She looks like a million bucks.
W00t! Congratulations Opal! Not too shabby, lady!
