It is starting to get chillier here and after wearing shorts all summer, I pulled out a pair of jeans to slip on this chilly morning.... knowing that the 26's I wore last spring are too big by now, I grabbed a pair of size 24's... they are too big too... I looked around to see if I had a pair of 22's hanging out there and lo and behold I did and they fit perfectly...

I have a long way to go but have lost over 45 and am very happy on this WONDERFUL day!! Just can't help but brag!!

Later,
Joanna

Oh, Joanna, I'm so thrilled for you! The largest jeans in my closet were also 26 (but I really needed a 28 and didn't have one)!

Way to Go!

Brag away!!!! That's what were here for, and the inspiration is amazing! Congrats on the sizes lost and the weightloss!!
I was more excited when I started losing the sizes than the weight, when my jeans were too big for me, and then the next were too big, I was floored. That is much more important that the numbers on the scales!! Congrats again!
