Default Victory is mine!

Haha I have to go to sleep, but I had to tell you all first.. its time to celebrate!

So mom and I go to Walmort today, to get, among other things, some stuff I really need.. an alarm clock, white t-shirts for work, new shoes and socks, and some jeans.

So just for fun I try on a pair of size 14 jeans. And they fit. Perfectly.

I GOT JEANS THAT ARE NOT A SIZE 16!

I dont think that has happened since I was in 7th grade.

I also got a pair of size 12 / 14 stretch parachute-ish pants that are adorable and also fit.

I am thrilled. I had to tell you all.. be happy with me.

Off to go feed myself, then must go to bed so I can wake up early for work tomorrow....

Default Congratulations!!!

That is so awesome! It's so nice when you can physically see the difference! A scale might say you're down ten pounds, but that doesn't really sink in until you're fitting into skinnier clothes!!

I don't think I've fit in a size 14 since 4th grade. Hahaha! I keep wondering how many pounds I will have to lose to get to size 14. I remember how psyched I was when I fit into a size 16 after being 20+ for ten years! It's an amazing feeling! Have fun struttin' your new wardrobe stuffs!

Thank you all for sharing in my triumph! I couldn't have done it (or continued to do it) without your support.. yay!

Now if I could just stop eating like a maniac like I have these past few days... *sigh* hehe
