My size 18 pants are WAY too big!!!! I went into a regular store yesterday and bought yet another size 16 skirt, which has plenty of room. I like being able to go into a regular store and find clothes. The shirt I bought to match the skirt was a L not a XL. I can fit into my size 14 black mini skirt in the closet, but it's still just a little too tight!!! I feel good. I look in the mirror and like what I see. However, I am worried b/c I am going out of town tomorrow. It's just over night, but I get back and two days later I leave for home for Christmas. Going home is hard b/c I'll be with my sister and we're probably going to bake stuff, and go out to eat a few times. I lack will power when it comes to that stuff. I figure I'm out, why not enjoy myself and eat what I want.
I just love clothing NSVs. As for eating out over the holidays, I bet you find yourself making good choices or at least better choices than you would a year ago. Enjoy yourself but try and eat healthy and you'll be okay. Have a good time.

That's wonderful about the clothes! When you are going out you must prepare yourself. Tell yourself is it worth gaining to "enjoy yourself" for the fleeting moment? Or can I work my points so I'm not cheating on myself.

Wow, do I ever love to hear about clothing NSV's ;-D Now when you go home, try to wear that 14 black mini skirt as much as you can, because it will help remind you that you don't want to gain, & just might keep you from stuffing yourself. Otherwise, have fun. Elaine K 331.4/209.8/179

Just remember the choice belongs to you, whatever you choose, think about it and don't second guess yourself, Lee Amber <[email hidden]> wrote in message "]news:[email hidden]...

I'll echo that! If you aim to maintain rather than gain over the holidays, that's a good choice. --
