I'm not the best poster here, since I'm mainly reading everyone else's posts BUT.. I had to share this since I've been in a land of disbelief since. In the beginning of January, when I started, I had out grown my size 18's and, instead of going to 20's, I opted for sweats. Well, about a month ago, I tried on my old 14's I had from the last time I managed to lose some weight [which I only kept off for 8 months, mind you], and they fit pretty well.. I was estatic and also modest.

Today I went into Old Navy to find something to wear on my vacation to Cedar point next month. I found this cute skirt, but they had no 14's. It was either a 16 or a 12. Now I knew I wasn't going backwards, so I grabbed the 12 and said, whatever happens happens. To my much appreciated surprise, the thing buttoned and zipped right up, without a problem.. I OWNED IT! haha..

So yea, that long drawn out story was that I fit in a size 12 and I'm super happy! Just thought I''d spread my joy, lol. And thanks to all you guys for inspiring me and making me smile. I may not post enough, but you sure do motivate me!

Nothing is better than fitting into smaller sizes, especially when you are not expecting to!
Sure does make all the hard work worth it..
