Congratulations!  The scale can show a good number, but different clothes sizes are real life!

Hi eliruthy! :)

It's not only possible... But most likely!

The scale does not know what it's measuring.
All it can measure is the TOTAL weight of everything on it including water, waste matter in the digestive tract, etc..

But when you can get into clothes that you could not before, like Scott said, that's real! ;D ;D ;D
What you do today is what matters!

OH IT DOES LOL!  I just got back from Jcpenney again b/c i had a survey coupon to use.  I resisted alot of stuff that I loved but didn't want to pay the price for.  so, then I found a little black dress, really cute, and I THOUGHT it was a size 8, tried it on, OMG, marked down to $17.99 making it 15 ish with my coupon.  Got up to checkout and realized that the "8" was a SIX!!!! Granted, a big six, but, WHATEVER! LOL!  And it zips! :o :o :o
