When I started, I was wearing jeans in a size 24w. About 3 weeks in, I bought jeans in a size 22w. I noticed they are getting somewhat baggy, so for grins today on my lunch break, I went to try on 20w. They fit!

In less than 8 weeks I have dropped two jeans sizes. I resisted buying any new jeans, just because I'm on a tight budget. But at the end of March, for my birthday night out, I'm hoping to splurge on a pair of 18ws.

Just wanted to share!

Congratulations! I, too, have found that a pair of jeans I couldn't button a month ago now go on easily and even get baggy after a few hours of wearing them! Definitely a great motivation to continue.

Can't wait to hear about more of your NSVs!

I am still in shock after looking for new jeans and realizing I am a size 14. I started at a 6X! Somehow, getting out of the W's seemed especially significant.

I actually had 2 today. I recovered a ring that had fallen off my finger because it was too big. My favorite was noticing that my underwear had fallen below by bum in back (I was wearing jeans thank you) I did not realize I had lost THAT much!Time to buy some new underwear!

My birthday is next week. My goal had been to go out for my birthday in size 18 jeans. I made it! Well, I don't know that I will actually go out in them, because I can't find any I like well enough to justify spending money on. lol! But, knowing that I could is wonderful enough. I may just wear my really cute 20s with a cute belt.

LOL, that's a bad visual. Not you specifically, but anyone LOL! Gives a whole new meaning to plumber's butt.
