ooh, you got to be a 16ish I would reckon. Thats my dream size at the moment. 
If you are around a 16 you can shop anywhere really. Sainsburys and George @ asda are fab for cheap and lovely clothes. Maxi dresses will be perfect for Barcelona.
So proud of ya Bostik, you should be really pleased xx

Thanks hun
I know it's weird, but you are going to look amazing. Defo take your sister, it's always advisable to have someone with you when purchasing important items of clothes.
Just remember take your time, and don't but anything you don't feel comfortable and confident in.

Well done, that's great!
Went shopping for clothes for my holiday today. Wow. I first went into Evans. Picked up a dress that was 18/20. Waaay too big! Picked up a 16 with a zip too and it fit fine! I was in shock. Anyway left there as I obviously did not need it for the first time lol. Went to other shops and found clothes in 16's that actually fit me! I was trying on clothes in Primark, Topshop, USC, allsorts! Normally I go to these shops and I'm waiting for my friends in the changing rooms. This time I was the one trying things on! Feels really weird but really good! Saw a maxi dress in New Look in the range for bigger ladies that was nice. They were all too big for me! Proper mental coming home with a Topshop shopping bag that had clothes for me in it! As you can tell, I am very excited lol.
When I got home my aunt was here with my cousins so went to say hi. They kept going on and on about how I've lost so much weight and what was my secret? Do you not eat? Do you only eat grilled stuff? That really annoys me still. But I am a size 16! I actually had no idea I would be. Thought I'd be struggling to get into an 18! Really really happy

Thanks sarah that is a lovely thing to say. You can do it again. Just gotta get into it and the habit will kick in after a bit
Thanks squeezy! Haha, shall maybe put up some pics from Barcelona when I am back.
Feel so weird wearing these clothes. Proper weird. And they actually fit me! I am not going back to being bigger again ever. It is just so much better when I am getting healthier. You know when you're big you think well I've always been like this. There's no point in me trying to lose the weight. I'm always gonna be like this. It's too much effort for nothing. There is so much of a point and I can honestly say it really hasn't been that much of an effort for me. Yeah some days are difficult when I just want to eat loads for the sake of it. But on the whole I have enough calories. I'm not starving. I am eating food I like. And I am happier and healthier

Dissertation finally handed in! Masters is finally over! Such a huge relief! Had a few drinks. Ate whatever today. With guessing I think I just worked it all out and think I am just under maintenance calories today which isn't so bad. Gives me hope a bit cos then I think when I am not counting, I am eating a decent amount of food and not going hugely over so maintenance might not be that hard?

That's me today just before I handed in my dissertation. I know it is blurry and that. But it's kinda the first time I can proper tell the difference. My face has gone right small compared to how it used to be! The dress is way too big still lol. I'll put pics from barcelona when I'm back showing you in proper fitting clothes!
