Went Pants Shopping - Didn't Cry!

  • Here in Nebraska we experienced our first really cool day today. I dug around in my dresser for all of those size 12 pants that were way to small in the spring. I had 2 pair of slacks and 2 pair of jeans - NOTHING fit! All to big! Woot!!

    Just came home from the store with a pair of size 10 jeans and 2 t-shirts in a medium!! Last year at this time I was a snug 16 and an XL in tops. I have 3 pairs of size 8's (pre-baby #3) that I'm hoping to wear after Christmas. I only bought one pair of 10's to "motivate" me. )

    Thanks for all of your support. I'm definitely doing a happy dance today!
  • Congratulations!
  • Congrats!!! That is seriously awesome! I was 16/XL in the fall last year as well. I bought some size 10 jeans to motivate me last month, but I was about to return them this week as they weren't cheap + they totally didn't fit when I got home. I'm back OP so maybe I should try them again + hold out a couple more weeks. Thanks for the motivation, I want to be as excited as you!!!!
  • Awesome for you! I'm envious! How inspiring really. I usually have a few pants in my closet that I keep, in the hopes that I can get into someday. I'm currently in a size 18.
  • That is so awesome MP! I bet you had a smile on the rest of the day!!
  • Alright!!! What a great feeling. :-)
  • Good for you. I have been on a similar adventure. Down from sze 10 jeans to size 8. Almost fainted when they fit!
  • How fantastic! I have a whole bunch of 18s in my closet that fit this time last year. I had lost 60 lbs and then got TOTALLY derailed. Back in the "fat pants" now. I cannot wait until everything in my closet is too big! What an inspriation.
  • congrat i can't wait to fIt my old clothes either ....
  • Thats awesome! Congrats!!!
