Default OMG I can zip up my "skinny" jeans!
Ok so yes, I wouldn't wear them in public yet because I have a huge muffin top in them, but I tried on my size 14 jean capris last night just so see how far up they'd go and got a nice surprise that they went over my bum and I could zip them!!!

WOW...I am in a size 18 now and I don't have any 16s and I think I will just wait it out until I can properly fit into the 14s in my closet. I have quite a lot of clothes that are waiting for me!

Thank you running for shrinking my bum and thighs! Now to work on my tummy so I can wear those jeans and feel awesome in public because I couldn't wipe the smile off my face in the bathroom when they zipped!

That is fantastic. It's always nice to see that you are shrinking in addition to the scale moving! Keep up the great work. And I have fallen in love with running as well, it has done wonders for my butt, thighs and legs!!

Way to go. It feels so good when an old pair of pants fit again.

WTG!!!!!! Doesn't it feel great!!!!

I'll never forget my first shopping trip after I had lost weight (I had been a size 12--tight size 12) and I dragged all these size 10's into the room.......and they were too big! Gawd, it feels good!

It does feel great, doesn't it? I had a similar experience jeans shopping on the weekend.

Keep it up!
