Maybe not a big deal to most...but to me, WOOOHOOO!

Over the summer I purchased a pair of jeans that were the same (size 20) as I have been wearing. I didn't try them on, went home and broke down crying. THEY DIDN'T FIT!! Oh, and I loved these jeans. I tried wearing them to work but 2 hours into my day, I had to unbotton them and hope no one could tell they were undone under my shirt. I never put them back on after that day.

This morning, I glanced at them hanging in my closet all nice and new..and said to myself "What the ****"?? So, I put them on, zipped & buttoned. They fit!! They are a lil snug around the waist, they will feel much better with another 5 lbs or so...but let me tell you...this was a HUGE thing for me. My other size 20 jeans fit fine on most days...so am not sure why, probably the cut. But they FIT now.

I went all day and didn't unbutton them. hahahahahahah (evil lil laugh)

This is so great! Way to go! Jeans are my motivation. Why is it that you can buy some jeans that are one color and they fit? Then you buy the black ones and they are way too tight? Also does any one have a problem with their jeans not fitting in the waist? Mine are always like that. Of course around the hips they are always tight. Congrats again, just think one more size and your out of the 20s.

Jenniffer that is so awesome. That is one of the greatest feelings to be able to fit back into a pair of jeans.

That is awesome!
I had some jeans I bought after the initial weight loss and wore them and gained 'just' 4 lbs and wham they were too tight. Now that I have the 4 lbs gone they fit better.

Its an amazingly good feeling huh? :)
Great job!!!

Into a new pair of jeans - well done! For me jeans always seem to be the thing that makes me feel the best when I'm into a new size. Great job!
