Journey to a size 18 Jean (photos)

  • I have been picture documenting my journey - fitting into my size 18 Jeans.

    I have pretty big hips naturally so It takes me quite a while to usually get down a size in Jeans. Before this my size 20 pants were practically falling off...but as you can see in this first picture, size 18's were just too tight!

  • I have the same problem with my hips, always taking longer to catch up to the rest of me but WOW do you look great!! Way to go!
  • Wow the transformation is amazing! You are doing so great I wish that I had been brave enough to take pictures of my progress along the way. Maybe then I could actually believe that I look different now. Please continue taking pics, its very motivating!
  • Thank you everyone! I will deff keep taking pics! Maybe update you when these get too big and I am able to wear size 16! I just need to get my butt to the goodwill to find some cheap new goal jeans.
  • A little update:

    Its been about 10 days since I made this post and I can already see a huge difference in how these size 18 jeans are fitting.
