Just a quickie...

Today is 5 weeks since I have been banded!! I am stuck at 233 the last couple days, but oh well.  I definetly see and feel the difference so I am not going to obsess.  I just have a quick NSV to share.  SO...before surgery I was a size 22, yesterday I went to get my son some clothes for school and decided while I was in Old Navy I would try a few things on because so many of you suggested it to me for some new, cheap clothes.  I have NEVER been able to wear ANYTHING Old Navy.  NEVER.  Well, I tried on about 456,789 shirts all XXL and they were too big...WTF are you kidding me?  So what did I do...kept trying on XXL.  DUH! Eventually I went and grabbed some XL stuff and tried that on and guess what? I walked out with two shirts size XL. I was ecstatic.  I also tried on some jeans size 20 and decided against it because they were a little two roomie, I could have squeezed into an 18, but they would have been a little snug.  I just can't believe it.  It feels so good.  I can't even fathom what the next year will bring!  Well, time to hop on the elliptical, I am determined to kick some ass in the challenge!!!  Have a great day!
