My Mom's Size 10 Jeans!
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG. HUGE NSV. I have always been heavier than my mom, though I've been able to steal some of her shirts (albeit, SOME) I have never ever ever fit into her pants or jeans. Today I was looking at measurement size charts from several different stores and they kept telling me that my measurements meant I'm a size 10. Doubtful of this I went into my mom's closet to hunt down the pair of Old Navy size 10 jeans she has, which I couldn't find. I did find a pair of size 10 Boston Proper jeans, though. But I was aware of the fact that Boston Proper usually runs small. I huffed and thought "what the heck" and decided to try them on. I expected them to get stuck at my hips or my thighs but they slid right up and buttoned! There's hardly any muffin top either!!! (Granted, my stomach sticks out maybe an inch because they run a little small, but after an hour of wearing them they're less snug) I sat right down and cried after looking in the mirror. 1. I have not been a size 10 since 7th and 8th grade and 2. I HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO FIT INTO MY MOM'S PANTS!!!! After I was done crying I got up and danced around the house. My brother (home sick) congratulated me and my aunt and step sister did a happy dance with me. I don't even care about the number on the scale today, because for the first time in a very long time I feel very normal and I do not feel like I belong in the plus sized section!!!!

You look so good! Congrats

Thank you Onederchic! You're my inspiration!

Awww you are wonderful, thank you ♥

And soon enough I'll be ONEderful lol!! You're welcome, you're a huuuuuge help to all of us chickies!! I think of you when I'm exercising!

You will sure enough be in onederland so soon! I am so excited for you

I can tell you are feeling fab. Keep up your hard work, dedication and commitment. What a beautiful girl you are and now that beauty is even coming from within. Well done!

Wow, those are great pictures, you are doing so wonderfully. And you are young, so don't worry about the stupid stretch marks right now, just be nice to your skin and give it some moisture now and then, they will fade. Besides scars add character , keep the bikini.

Good job. Love that dress in the last pic!

You look so great! I can REALLY tell a difference in your belly in that bikini! And I agree about the stretch marks--they'll fade (at least that is what I tell myself too, lol) and they do add character! Keep the bikini! And that last dress is so cute--W2g on the size L!

Congratulations on your accomplishment!

You look great, and I love that dress in the last picture, it's sooooo cute.

Thank you everyone!!! The last dress I got from Ross last fall, but I don't think they have it anymore... BUT! Don't fret, that style is VERY much in this season and it's very flattering for those of us with curves! I'll be taking my next progress photos when I reach 190 :3 (I'm also always taking pictures, so... expect lots more pictures - by progress pics I mean pics of me in the bikini lol!)

OH! I love to see progress pics!
