Smile Embarrassing!
This wasn't something I really planned as a mini-goal...but it's funny! A couple of months ago, I bought "real" shorts - meaning the waists weren't made with elastic and they had belt loops. One pair was a size 18 and had become my favorite. I was installing our window air conditioner, standing on my balcony with this huge air conditioner and my shorts fell down! I couldn't exactly drop the air conditioner, so I shuffled into my apartment with my shorts around my ankles. (I don't think anyone saw!)

The next day, I bought a belt and size 16 shorts like those size 18's. My first belt since high school (eons ago) and first size 16 in years!! Yeah!
