I was browsing through Ebay and I saw this exquisite dress that I thought was just incredibly beautiful. I felt I just had to have it. I was looking a a couple of others at the same time as well. I managed to win the dress. I got the dress in yesterday and excitedly opened the box. It was everything I had hoped it would be. Except it was a size 10. :( :mad: I wear 12/14. I immediately went to the computer to check the Ebay description because I clearly remembered that the listing said the size was M/L which should have been more like a 12 or a 14. Oooops. Nope, the listing plainly says size 10. One of the others I was looking at said M/L. Hmmm. Well this dress is so beautiful, that I just had to try, after all I have been trying to loose a little weight recently. I thought that this dress might just give me the incintive to loose a couple of more pounds. I decided to try it on to see how far I would need to go. Now, we all know that not all 12's are the same size, etc. But, according to Cachet who made this dress, I am a 10.... Wahoooo. It fits like a glove and it is so pretty I don't want to take it off.

I had a similar experience one day. While taking out the trash, I noticed two dresses laying on top of a neigbors trash bin. I walked over to inspect them and noticed that they were in very good shape. Wondering why someone would put these in the trash, I snatch them up and took them into the house. The wife had already left for her water arobics, so had the house to myself. Once inside, I discovered that both of the dresses were size 12. I wear a size 14, but decided to try these on anyway. So I put the first one on and started zipping it up and it zipped all the way. Not only did it fit, it was not tight. That is when I realized that the "Default Diet" was working.
My wife is going to Weight Watchers, so to support her, I eat the same things she does so by "Default", I am on the same "Diet". LOL Went to the doctor a couple weeks later and found out I had loss almost 25 pounds. :D

That's awesome! How cool is that? Ebay is such a wonderful place to shop--and, so much the better if you can go down a size! (I can relate to your experience. I recently purchased a pair of boots on Ebay that were a size smaller than I usually wear and they fit fine...it's so much fun telling everyone I can wear a size 10--again, lol!)

As far as I knpw there is only one picture in the world of me dressed as a girl. And that was at Halloween a couple of years ago dressed as the Chiana character. I have taken some others but I have deleted/destroyed any others. But maybe I can do something from the neck down. We'll see. I don't want to break my new camera.
How about a pic from the auction with the seller modeling the dress. From the neck down, of course?
