Default I have no pants that fit just right! and I love it!

So my usual size 16 jeans are already starting to get loose and fit funny. YAY! I know its only 8lbs but even to feel a little better in my own skin is a great feeling!! I tried on a pair of 16 jeans that were smaller (yah who knows??) but either way they didn't fit before, now I can get them buttoned but they are still uncomfortable. But I don't care, progress is progress!!!

I can see myself fitting into my old size 12 jeans I knew there was a reason I kept all my "skinny" clothes

congrats! my size 20s are getting a bit loose, but my 18s are still way too small at the waist. Odd.

Yay! I have a love/hate relationship with clothes right now. I love that they're getting too big, but I hate the way big clothes makes me look sloppy...and I hate having to spend money on new clothes that won't fit again in a couple months.

Overall, I think it's a good problem to have! Congrats on your progress!

Congrats too all of us who are shrinking into a new wardrobe!!!! luckily I was a lot thinner and kept all my clothes so my closet has clothes size 10-18. That will hopefully save me some money!

I am looking forward to being able to find clothes that dont cost an arm and a leg because they have 11ty billion yards of fabric in them. I have a shirt i picked up at walmart for $3 and I cant wait until it fits. Oh the clothes I could buy for $50 when I am skinny.

That is terrific! (sounds funny to say that about ill fitting clothes) You are doing great!

I have some size 16 stored away, I can't wait to fit into them. Before Christmas perhaps?

Keep up the good work! I can't wait to have that problem. I refuse to buy more clothes in this size, or until they are hanging on me

I went out a bought 4 pairs of dress pants for work in September in a size 14. This week I've noticed that all of them are feeling quite loose now. I'm hoping they last out for another 6 weeks and replace them in the post-Christmas sales. Who'd have believed that 6 or 7 pounds could make such a difference.

Those few pounds really do matter though! No I haven't dropped a full size yet, but my pants are by no means tight anymore which is nice. Its always nice to see progression aside from the scale.
