This is a great thread. I enjoy living vicariously reading these stories, because I've reached a place (a good one) where nothing much changes any more. The shrinking clothes stories are fun. Reminds me of when a sales associate looked me up and down and said "are you sure you want to try on a skirt in that size?" I was mortified and sheepishly asked if I was too big for it. She looked at me with a puzzled expression and said "No, you're too small for it, here take this" and she handed me one that was two (yes, two) sizes smaller. I reluctantly took it into the changing room just to be polite, but feeling ridiculous with this tiny little thing in my hand. To my amazement she was right, the smaller skirt fit. Our changing bodies really do take some getting used to. It can take a while to see ourselves as others see us. Congratulations to all of you who are having this problem
