I bought a new bra last year, and couldn't wear it comfortably because the band was too tight. It fits perfectly now and I'll probably need a new band size in a few months.

When I got outta the tub a while ago I grabbed a regular towel and wrapped it around me. It fit. I always used to have to use the oversized bath towels.

I have a pair of Fluevog ankle boots that did not fit when I started NK. Now I can zip them up, but the boots are still a bit too tight to be worn comfortably. Another 10 or 15 lbs gone, and I should be able to wear them again.

Another 10 or 15 lbs gone, and I should be able to wear them again. Somebody told me a trick for getting on calf boots..lay on floor with legs up for a couple of minutes and boots will zip right up..really works. Great job Bunniee zip up feels sooo good no matter how tight.

Good Heavens if I had laid on the floor to put support pantyhose on when I was 8 mos pregnant would have stayed there until I gave birth!! LOL The things we do..it works tho

I laid in bed to do it. Wouldn't have been able to get down on the floor or up from it.

Yesterday I found two pairs of jeans....that used to fit me many moons ago! Last time I tried them I couldn't get them above my knees (it was horrible) .....I tried them on and to my shock they fit AND I could fasten and breath in them . Oh Joy!!!!! I need to remember that my body is taking its own sweet time in losing the weight and I have to be patient.....but nice things like this happen to keep me going!!

Last night we had a meeting at DeDe's school. She was so happy to take me and just kept telling me how good I looked and how she couldn't wait to show me off to all of her friends. It felt really good to be a normal looking size. She wrapped her arm around my shoulder and took me all over the place. After we left she just went on and on about how cute I was and she just smiled. Thanks for all the help you guys. It feels good that my kids are proud to be seen with me. When I was 240 lbs I worried they would be embarrassed, they never made me feel that way but I still hated going to things because I felt so awful about myself.

New NSV! While building the porch I had to stand up between the support joists. They are supposed to be 16" on center but I ended up with something like 12" on center. There is no way I could have crawled around under the porch frame or stood between those joists at ~12", or even 16", before losing all this weight

Put on a pair of pants I've not worn for a year. They are actually loose in the waist.....The fat cells must be shrinking as I couldn't wear these at this weight before.

Well, the scale is still bouncing up and down so I've not gone below my last new low, however the jeans I wear all the time are getting bigger. I actually was able to pull them up WITHOUT unzipping them!!! Woo Hoo.....These are a womens size so the waist is bigger. Maybe in a couple weeks I'll be back into misses sizes.

Nice NSV The way you look and the way your clothes fit is more important than any number on a scale! Congrats Kewlkat!

BUMP. I know that BMI tables may be flawed, but have to admit I'm pleased to have dropped from the obese to overweight category.
