NSV of the week.
 

I've gone through my closet and gotten rid of my 26/28 jeans and slacks. I'm comfortably wearing 24s and the occasional 22.

I saw a cute pair of slacks in the closet and decided that they'd be my next mini-goal. I tried them on to see how far I have to go...and they button and zip already. I need 5-10 lbs before they actually look good, but dammit I can wear them now if I need to do so.

My coveted pair of Ralph Lauren 22s fit.

So...I guess I can claim I'm a 22 now instead of a 24???

:D It is okay to do that, right?

Yes It's ok you can wear them, Congrats on being a size 22 and keep up the good work!

What a nice surprise - that you can button and zip already. Definitely claim the 22 -- you've earned it!

Sweet! Enjoy your success on the road to becoming fitter and healthier!

Awesome job!!!!!
