So I called myself a 14. Because if I lay down flat, I could zip a 14. I guess quite technically I was a 16, but if I didn't breathe, I could muffin-top a 14. So that's what I claimed, (even if it's not what I wore, LOL.)
Yesterday, I had this pair of capris in a size 12 that haven't fit me since the year 2003BC. (that would be Before Claire, not Before Christ.) I pulled them on just to see, and they fit. Sit-in-a-seat-and-not-turn-blue fit, not just "I zip, therefore I am" fit. A real 12. I didn't even have to hold my breath to button 'em.
Size 10, look out, now!

Congratulations!! That is wonderful ~ I'm hoping to be right behind ya sista!! Thanks for the motivation

Congrats! I'm very aware of all the games we can play with our brains.

By the way, I have to say I love your humor "I zip, therefore I am!" You make me laugh quite frequently. Thanks for that!

YAyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy for you! You are doing really well!

Yay!!! That's awesome!

thats awesome! what a great feeling!

that is such a great feeling!
someone once posted on this site somewhere that she was proud of everyone who has "gotten into one size smaller pants." i'm sure a lot of people have never felt that feeling before! congrats!!

muffin top? I like that!! You must be feeling awesome. It'a always a great feeling when we fit into clothes that we hadn't in a loooong time. I'm with you right there and still trying to fit into my 18's (that sounds so big compared to your 12's lol) Keep it up!!!

Congrats Candice! You better get ready for those 10's sounds like you are on your way.

Congrats Candice!! That's great!! Look out size 10!! In no time you'll be there!

Hey way to go! You are unstoppable!

Shake it like ya mean it...

Congrats! Lol, if "I zip therefor I am" is true then by golly I'm a 14 already hehe. Not far though. I get the "muffin top" going on if I try to wear them now. Lol, love your terminology!

Way to go! That's such a great feeling.I know I was completely ecstatic the first time I was able to stuff myself into a 12

Oh good job!

congratulations candice! your commentary is spot on and i definately empathise with you.

keep up the good work
