Ha @allyJay I also went from an 18 DD top with a 12 waist and a 14 arse --those were the days-- to a situation where I could buy a shirt off the rack that was not SM (small marquee) and actually button it up.
A fit of midnight senses saw me enter a local radio competition to win $2k to pay off my credit card. My application? I needed the money to replace my melon managing lingerie with apple enhancing versions. The money came in very handy and my exes horror that I would share such a story was icing on the cake.
