I just bought my first pair of size 18 jeans in twenty years at Costco.  And they fit! Comfortably! I am actually considering returning them for the 16's as they are pretty roomy.  This is one of my first goals - to shop in a non-plus sized store. I feel GREAT!

It opens up a whole ew world of shopping. Some people find it over whelming but I love too  be able to walk into almost any store and know I can try on any thing I want

It is nice, isn't it?! I've actually become a fan of the local Value Village. Brought in all of my old clothes, and found some really nice stuff there, really cheap. I'm trying to avoid buying too much new stuff until my size stabilizes.

I tried to look at VV, but never found anything that I liked enough to buy.  The jeans are only $20 at Costco, and I don't mind paying that.  I don't want to spend a lot of money, and I want to look good as I lose weight!   

I need to make another trip to VV and see if they have any half decent winter coats. Maybe it is the VV I visit, but it's all old lady clothes from the 80's lol. I tried both my old winter coats on and they are huge on me.... Luckily I was able to squeeze into my husbands winter jacket today as we marched in a Remembrance Day parade this morning.

Oh, that's too bad. I found two really nice winter coats there for $20 each, one London Fog and one Eddie Bauer. The jeans are averaging $8 each, which is great!
