I scored a pair of cream dress trousers today. They look fab, but the best part is on the inside. The size on the label is 12. I can't tell you what a big deal this is for me. When I joined WW, wearing a size 24W, I decided that my dream size was a 12. Dropping seven sizes seemed almost impossible. But here I am...still 23 pounds from goal and a size 12. And the absolute best part is that I now get to lower my dream size to a 10. Only skinny people wear a size 10!

Kathy congratulations. I do know how you feel. I was wearing tight 22W's when I joined and my dream size was a 14. I'm now wearing 10's and 12's. I still have a hard time walking past the plus sizes and into the regular department, because I wore plus for sooooo long. Congratulations again, you truly are an amazing person. I appreciate your thoughts and support.

I echo what everyone else here has said. This is one of the most inspirational posts I've read. Thank you so much. I too started (only a month ago) at size 24 (sometimes 26) pants. Thanks for the reminder that the road, while it may be long, is a good and DOABLE one. Cheers
