Default Jeans victory!!!
OMG I was just getting ready to go out and run a few errands and I put on my size 22s and I can actually wear them low on the hips instead of practically at the belly button! It's amazing! Before I couldn't tolerate them around the hips cause they were too tight!

So I took the 22s off and put the 20's on and they are even loose! You know how when you take kids shopping for jeans you stick your hand down the front to make sure they have room to grow? Well I can do this with my size 20s!!!! A month ago I couldn't wear them buttoned just zipped.

For the first time ever I am seeing physical signs of my weightloss and not just the scale numbers. This was a great pick me up for me today.

Thanks everyone. I'm waiting on the new jeans until I know I can fit into an 18. I hate to buy jeans and then have them be too big in a few weeks.

Same thing happened to me today! I've worn 20's FOREVER. I think the only thing that kept me there was until recently that was the biggest size Old Navy made. HAHA. Anyway my 20's have been falling off me but I refuse to buy until I can fit into 16. I figure every other size is good. Well today I tried on a pair and they fit! Comfortably too! Better than my 20's did when I started losing weight. It's so exciting and rewarding.

Don't chuck them -- donate them to Goodwill or Salvation Army or something.

What a nice way to get rid of pounds, and clothes!

Congrats.
