Talking Whew!

I'm there!!! Size 4 jeans, purchased tonight! They're snug in the booty, but the husband thoroughly approves of them that way. *blush* But then, I'm not used to wearing clothes that actually fit; I normally use them to hide my figure, not showcase it.

Anyway, I no longer use the scale, so I don't know how much weight I've lost, but as of last month it was 94 pounds, so I guess a little more than that. I was getting too obsessed with the numbers, so I decided that at size 4 I'd start trying to maintain and tone rather than lose.

Now, to start on that!! *heads off to the Maintainers forum*

Congrats!! Size 4???? I am at a size 8 and think I will try to maintain this, no way could I stay a size 4 for more than a few weeks (I've done this before). You should be so proud and happy!!!!

Thank you, ladies! Y'all know how to make a girl feel good about herself.

Candlemaker, I have "before" pics, but not many. And I will see about having the hubby take some photos of me in the new jeans this weekend. Thanks again for the kind words!!

I had a lot of starts and stops, and periods in which I would "give up" for a while and thus gain back five or so pounds, so...about three years. But I learned from every setback, and it's worth it!!

Thank you again, everyone.

*blush* Thank you all. I appreciate the kind words, but ye gods, I hate that first picture. It was really hard to get up the guts to post it.
