Default A few exciting clothing moments lately...
A few days ago I ordered some new underwear from Torrid. I was pretty sure I wore a 3, which is a 3x or 22/24. I ordered a 2, which is a 2x or an 18/20. I figured tighter is better because I could wear them longer as I lose weight. Well, they fit great!! I almost wish I had ordered a 1 which is a 1x or a 14/16. There's one pair that are a little too tight.

Earlier today my mom brought in a pair of 14/16 (I think) sweatpants and told me to try them on. They fit perfectly!! They're sweatpants, but still that's really exciting!

So I decided to grab some jeans to see if they're looser. To be honest I don't leave the house much so I don't get dressed very often. The last time I really got all dressed up was when I went job hunting and before that when I was staying with my friend in late December. I grabbed these jeans that used to be painfully tight on me and my fat roll would hang over. I thought I didn't really like them, but I put them on and they look GREAT! I love them! They're Seven brand so I'm glad they won't be going to waste. They're a size 20, which seems really big but I have always had big thighs and I've mostly been losing weight in my stomach and face.

There's also two shirts that I tried. One of them used to be really, really tight and now it fits like it should!

I just wanted to share this because I'm so excited! If you're looking for some motivation, go grab some old clothes that used to be too tight and see if they're easier to put on.

Fantastic! So thrilled for you! I love the feeling of having something that started out snug and got baggier and baggier with each passing week.

I love that when it happens Linsy! It's like a mini victory. I have also been able to start wearing lots of clothes I had stuffed waaaay back in the closet. What a wonderful day for you!!!!

Thank you guys! I have a lot of unwashed clothes that I plan on washing and trying on, plus clothes that have been in my closet for a while just because they didn't look right or were a little bit snug. I don't have any of my skinny clothes anymore but looking better in my current clothes is pretty exciting.

I'm happy for you Linsy! I think it's great to fit into smaller stuff, especially when you're not expecting it to happen. Keep up the awesome work!
