So I'm at the store the other day, and there's these beautiful sun dresses all over the "normal size" section. (Usual litany of ugly stuff in the "me size" section). Anyway, there was this one style, in a light lavender that was uber cute. They went up to 18, so Sohrshah talks me into trying it on because I'm kinda squeezing into 18Ws these days. Whaddya know, it fit! (It'll fit better in 5 lbs, but it fit )

Then the other day I stepped on a scale, and I'm down to 215. Not a huge accomplishment, as dieting goes, except that I'm not dieting. This is just from little changes (like reducing grease) and an increase in physical activity. For the past few years I maintained a weight of about 225, and at some point bumped up close to 240 and was flirting heavily with size 22. Haven't seen a size 18 since I was in the USC Band in 2004.

I still don't think I'll be browsing the aisles of the regular sizes any time soon, but it's nice to know the occasional novelty item can be found there
