I love that you could get into those now "dont that feel good" I am just realizing this myself..although im pulling out the old ones and they are loose and I have no but either..Today in the grocery store hubby kept saying pull your pants up on you..I said "I have them up as far as they will go" LOL these are pants that I had to un-button last year at thanksgiving after I ate..Gosh it feels good dont it? I am so proud of you..continue what you are doing..Your doing a good job!
