NSV - size 8!!!
 
Woooo...I'm wearing my first size 8 pants I ever remember owning! Even when I was a kid, as in junior high and middle school, I remember 10's and 12's. I got down to 9's a couple summers ago, but I was really a 9/10.

Granted, they aren't jeans, but they're still fitted. They're almost loose...I wouldn't go smaller than this, but they fit just like they're supposed to. And size 8!

My weight loss goal is either size 6 or 145lbs. As you can see in my ticker, I still have about 10lbs to go. I'm hoping when I reach goal, I'll hover around a 6/8. That would be simply unreal for me. I truly didn't think I'd EVER in my LIFE fit in a size 8!

ahhhh congrats!! you've been losing weight so quickly, it's amazing! those last ten pounds are going to disappear in no time :)

Thanks :D I've never seriously tried to lose weight before, so I always thought it would take MONTHS of misery to get to where I am now. Really, it hasn't been all that hard. A few roadblocks along the way, but nothing serious. So it has surprised me also how quickly I lost weight. And I truly never thought I'd be in a size 8.

Thanks everyone :)

I went jeans shopping and determined that I'm definitely still a 9 on average. No size 9's were too small, and I actually fit into a few 7/8 pairs, but 9 is where I'm at currently. That's fine :)

I hate shopping for jeans. I went to two different department stores, Ross, TJ Maxx, and a few other places and didn't buy ANYthing! I'm sooo picky about jeans. First of all, I refuse to wear skinny jeans, I think they're hideous. So that eliminates like 50% of everything that's out there. Then I'm picky about the color, tacky back pockets, too faded, too granny-ish. And that's all before I try them on, lol.

So I currenly sit at an 8/9 and a medium in tops. Not bad...I was a 12/13 and large/x-large in October :)
