23 lbs down, and 3 dress sizes!

[VioletDragonfly]

Yeah! 4 weeks on Phen, 1 week off because I forgot to make my doctor's appointment, 2 weeks on again so 6 weeks total. Following a 1200 calorie a day diet.. and I've lost 23lbs. I went from a size 24 to a size 18! I'm almost fitting into some of my older 16's! So excited.

While I've been super excited about losing weight and getting back into shape, I was starting to get very frustrated at the same time because all of my clothes now BAGGY look horrible on me. I'm lucky, I happened to be looking for a microphone in my upstairs last week when I stumbled upon some old boxes, FULL OF AWESOME CLOTHES I forgot I even owned from size 18 down to 12's! So I have an entire new wardrobe to last me for months while I continue this jouney. LOL

WOOHOO!! You go girl !! I know exactly how you feel, because I felt the exact same way until we finally decided to get rid of old clothes that we had been saving up for a community yard sale & once I started going through them, I realized I could wear old clothes from years ago! I was soo excited! So I got to replace all those old clothes w/ all my baggy ones! Keep up the good work girly :D

Congrats!!!! That's awesome!! I started at 284, size 24. In 4 weeks I lost 22 lbs but I'm still in the same 24!!! I was a tight 24 before, now I'm a comfortable 24. I do wish my 22lb weightloss was a noticable as yours.

That's great that you lost so many sizes! Can't wait to be there myself!
