  • So I got up this morning (uh, afternoon ) and after putting on my jeans decided I would wear the one belt that I own.


    I bought this belt awhile back.. way before I started losing weight. I bought it from torrid in their size 3.. which = 47 inches from the beginning of the belt to the center hole.

    When I bought it I had to wear it on the first or second hole... today when I put it on, I realized there were NO MORE HOLES LEFT. The belt is TOO BIG. I never expected that!!! I made a new hole in it, still too big. So I made another and it fits perfectly!


    Here's a pic of the belt on me today in the 2nd hole, where I USED to have to wear it:
    ... I didn't know there was a hole in this shirt haha

    Here's one of the belt on the last hole it was made with:

    And here's one with me in the belt on the new hole!:






    wowwww. I definitely do not feel like I've shrunk that much??!! I keep making excuses, like "you were probably wearing it loose before" and "belts are made different so it looks like a bigger difference than it really is." Do you guys do that? I find myself making excuses like that ALOT about any change I see or comment somebody makes. But really, I know I just need to enjoy this.. soo
  • That's awesome! Way to go! I do wonder somtimes if things fit because they've stretched--even if I they're jeans and I just took them out of the dryer!

    BTW--I can't see your pics, not sure why, maybe it's just. Try to fix it, I want to see!
  • Can't see the pics yet, but CONGRATS! NSVs like that are great! Enjoy the moment!
  • I can't see the pix either, but CONGRATULATIONS!!!

    And STOP making excuses. Accept that all your hard work IS paying off and you ARE losing weight and you DO deserve it.

    Geez. Who do you think you are? ME?

  • You have to believe - the proof is right there in the pictures for all to see - it's too big!!!!! - you had to put more holes in it to make it fit!!!!
