On the NSV front, I went to the mall yesterday to finish up a little xmas shopping, and stopped into J.Jill. I love their clothes... but honestly, I am afraid to try their bottoms on. So I picked out a present for my sister-in-law, and was checking out and asked the lady what sizes their bottoms went up to. She said 18. I said, "Oh wow! I might actually fit into those now, since I'm down from a size 26... I seem to be fitting in about an 18 now" She said (completely deadpan / honestly) "Are you kidding me? What size are you? I would have pegged you for a 10/12 at the most!" I almost cried! I want to truly believe that they weren't desperate for a sale (even though the cynical side of me thinks that is what they are paid to say), but even if she lied (a little bit), it made my day! To be honest, I still didn't have the courage to actually try on their clothes - I felt so out of place in there! But, maybe after the holidays I will find the courage to go in there and see what bottoms are on sale!!!

Oh the Pot Roast sounds heavenly!! Fantastic NSV though! You should definitely go in some day & try on the clothes.
Happy Holidays
Wow, Sarah, your weight loss journey is almost over and you're on your way to a healthier life. The NSV sounds terrific, good for you.
Lookin good! I hear you with the crock pot. I had that happen to me earlier in the year, mine bit the dust and I ran right out and bought a new one that very day. Thanks for sharing, it helps me so much.
oh man I have this same fear. I think I am afraid to try some of these smaller items on bc what if they dont fit or something? It is really irrational but come one! It is hard for us ya know? I think it has to do with the mind catching up to our weight loss. And for me, if they wouldnt have fit, I would have been bummed and grumpy!
That is a great NSV!! I bet you will be surprised to find that their clothing fits -- you look great!! Also, I am so with you on the crock pot love. . I haven't used mine for a while, but whenever I do, I love it!
Awesome NSV, I am positive she meant it - you look fabulous! Also, congrats on being only 10 lbs from Onderland!! I am so excited for you - I can't imagine how great that feels.
I just stashed my slow cooker (same thing I think) back in the cupboard - with summer I won't use it as much but come winter again that little sucker will be fired up and used again.
Great NSV, Sarah. Regardless of whether you tried anything on, the very fact you were 'thinking' about it shows progress. You might just surprise yourself next time you venture in (like myself and Crossroads - remember that post??) Such excitement then!!
Go try on those pants and if they fit, buy them! Treat youself for all the hard work you have done!
That is a fabulous NSV! Congradulations! I probably would have cried.
