Talking NSV- size 16!!!
I went shopping today with my sister (well, she went shopping, I went walking with her...) & thought I would try on some jeans ... just out of curiosity...
Keep in mind that even as a 13 year old heading in to high school- I was so sad no store had my size- I had to shop at the plus size stores; I can never in my life remember fitting into anything below an 18.
Anyways- I went into Old Navy & grabbed a 20, an 18 & a 16. I sat in the fitting room debating on which to try on first... & thought to heck with it, lets go for the 16-
I held em up thinking "no way..." preparing to leave depressed; and THEY FIT!! First time ever in a 16!! Granted I would never ever purchase them the way they fit- wayyy too tight- but I was able to button them!
I told my sister & she was like "oh cool" & that was that lol- but I couldnt wait to get home & share it with people who can understand how exciting it is

Congrats! I have to say, you look FABULOUS at a 16! I'd guess you to be around a 10-12...there's no way I looked at good in a 16.

Keep up the good work

We're the same weight and about the same size (16s fit snugly too), but I don't rock jeans the way you do...you look awesome!

I'm convinced there making sizes smaller than they used to....when I read this thread I was NOT expecting to see what I saw!!! You totally do ROCK those JEANS!!! They don't look more than a 12...seriously. You may want to try a 12 on next time you are shopping at a different store!!!

Congrats!!!

Aw thank you all so much for the compliments!!!!
They keep me motivated!!
But like I said, it was a good angle & by too tight I mean they look like skinny jeans but they are not skinny jeans. & I'm just not ready for that yet.. can't wait to post again when I'm in an even smaller size!!
