Congratulations Katholyn,

That is such great news.

 

[Zoo Keeper]

WAY TO GO!

What wonderful news!
Don't buy too many size 18's. I'm sure you be in a smaller size in no time.

Absolutely Awesome!

Just the inspiration I need this weekend

Thanks

Congratulations Kath!! Isn't it fun to see your clothing get so baggy?
I'm at the size 22 level (they're getting baggy!) & I'm having a hard time thinking that I won't have to shop in the big size stores! I would love to buy all my clothes at Chico's & Talbots!!

Thank you for sharing your successes - it gives some of us hope that we can do it too!!

{{{{{Katholyn}}}}}
What a WONDERFUL surprise you had to share with us!!!! I am so happy for you that I won't even give you a lecture

about being embarrassed about mentioning a size 22 (I believe that is the size of these shorts I am wearing... yep - elastic waist too) because this is truly GREAT news!!!!

Come on out here......

Let us get a good look at you. Turn around. That's right. Wow! You look fabulous!! You are just shrinking away!! That new clippie looks so fantastic on that new body! You are doing SO well, Katholyn!!

And by the way, if you do that "too embarrassed thing" again, I will bop you if someone else won't. I am sure you had simply forgotten that we don't judge anyone on WISH! We are your greatest cheerleaders!!!

We're all proud of you because no matter where we are in this battle, we are all in the same boat! Thx for taking the time to read all our posts and give encouragement. I'm glad you are having success as well. The tough part is in front of us. Keep up the good work! Don't get caught in the size, get caught in the friends you now have made and the support group you have helped to form!

 

[lmhall2000]

I wish I had your knack at spreading the excitement and joy at the successes of others....

There I tried

I'm just so proud of your great accomplishment!! You're in the teens!! Those inches are coming off and we need to see some more pics!!

I think we're in the same boat- I never bought 22's- was never brave enough- but I do own 1x's and I think some 2x's in blouses to help cover up my wideness. I have two pairs of shorts that are actually 18's and they fit me the best now- I even put on a pair of 16's by accident- and they buttoned but within minutes that button could have become a lethal projectile ricocheting through my bedroom- you can imagine the relief when I realized they were 16's! So here's two cheers for your nice fitting 18's and soon to be fitting 16's!!

Thanks for keeping us excited about our goals to become healthy. It's meant so much to me.

WOO-HOO KATH!!

By the way I started out with a size 22 also, I know if I can do it so can't you. I am definiately getting a picture of this lady this coming week


Congrats Kath!!!
The clippie looks faaabulous on you too!!!!

 

[yasuern]

Congratulations! That is a big deal! thats 2 sizes down!!!!

[Dizzy-Disney4]

Katholyn! That is so GREAT!!! You've got me so excited at 7:00 in the morning!!!! I'm honestly thrilled for you! Keep up the good work and enjoy the new size!!!

 

[house_of_princesses]

You don't need a gold clippie! You're shining like gold all on your own!

 

[jimmytammy]

That is so exciting, it is a big deal and no where near boring. Like a few others have said, don't go out buying too many 18's because you'll be moving on down real soon.

Congrat's!!!

Congrats Kath!!!

 

[PartyofSix]

Kath I just wanted to say your awesome! I'm so proud for you. A size 18 is a BIG deal to all of us. Most of us have been there and for those that are smaller the numbers might be smaller but in there minds that 12 is 18 for them. I am so so so very happy for you. Thank you for sharing that with is i'm thrilled for you. When i moved from 18 to 20 it was like okay now i'm on my way! The key is only to have two pairs of jeans that size cause you'll be in 16's before you know it girl! I'm doing a happy dance for you!

 

[susan514]

Shout it from the rooftops!!!!!

You should be very proud, not only because of the size change but how you inspire all of us.

You will tell us when your size shrinks some more, just to inspire all of us.

THAT IS A WONDERFUL SECRET TO SHARE!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations, Kath!!!!!!!!!! You sure are sneaky, keeping that great news from us!!!

Woo-hoo!!!! I am so happy for you and very proud of you! I keep watching your pounds lost count go up and I had been wondering if you were just holding your pants up with the Jethro method of belt tying (an old piece of rope knotted at each end) or what!

This is the greatest news! It is so wonderful when we make these kinds of changes - it's the best feeling to buy new clothes in a smaller size. CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS!!! You are doing it, baby!!! Woo-hoo!

Keep up the great work. Onward and Downward!!!!!! xo TigH. xo

I am so happy for you Kath! After 35 pounds I can still where most my old stuff --- just a little bit roomier now - LOL! I did by some 22 capri's though --- and that was a big deal since my bottoms were up to as high as 26/28! My tops are now mostly 1x with some 2x. Down one size! Today I have one of my nicer 'older' outfits on --- very roomy and comfortable!
