Journey to New Jeans. Who's with me?!
Okay, so this is kind of an update and challenge related to my thread Journey to a Size 18 Jean
I think I've officially gotten to/and past my goal to a size 18 Jean. I'm the type of person who gets attached to their jeans...if that makes any sense and I'll wear the crap out of them until I find that "new pair" or they literally fall off of me. I even try and shrink my jeans in the washer/dryer to make them last longer, which I've attempted with these particular pair of jeans; they feel good right out of the dryer, but then stretch back out throughout the day. I'm seriously going to need to get size 16 jeans now, and start this journey once again!
I guess the challenge would be to take your own "before" pics in those jeans you don't quite fit into yet and start making a photo progression log! 
Ill just post the before and afters here, if you want to see the progression its in the thread linked above.
Anyways... BEFORE ( 210lbs)
AFTER! (As of Today 5/19/2010) ( 196lbs)
To show how lose they are:

Congratulations! You're looking good in those jeans, and I can definitely tell that you've lost inches around your stomach.

Your post sent me scuttling to my closet! I had honestly not thought to go peek at the old clothes. So I had a stack of jeans, shorts, workout clothes, and a few dresses...
I found 3 size 14s that fit!! Sadly, all those are a bit ragged, and good for around the house, but nothing to wow anyone. I found 4 pair of size 12s that I cannot get into, most of which are barely worn, and one pair that I really love..these will be my first goal pants.
Further down, I came across some 10s...target 2..and the ever elusive size 8s. To be honest I have NEVER been able to wear those. Have those from a very old goal that was never reached. I intend to make it this time.
you, btw, look fantastic..and how I wish I could carry my weight as well as you do! I am jealous beyond words that you look as good as you do at your weight, and I honestly am not sure I will look as good after reaching my goal! Damn you people with well proportioned bodies!

you look great!!!! I'm totally envious of that flat tummy. My belly is my most hated body area and I'm thinking that no matter how much weight I lose, it will never look as good as yours does already. (unless I have surgery, maybe!)

YAY! You look AWESOME! I think fitting into a smaller pair of jeans/pants is one of the best feelings!

so my jean goal is this funky pair of size 12s in my closet. All of my other size 12s fit--tight, but they fit...but these things..i don't know what is up. i can pull them up, but not button or zip for that matter. So those jeans are my goal!
