My husband pulled out these size 8 pants from my skinny set of clothes (clothes I used to wear), I told him to put them back b/c I didn't think they would fit. He insisted I try them on, so I finally gave up and did. I said "Ok, If you want to see fat bubbling out of them when I button them on."
I buttoned them on and they fit perfectly I still have 20 lbs to go but this sure did feel good. I can't believe I am almost there.
That's fantastic! Congratulations. Isn't it funny how others can see the weight come off before you can? Good for your husband for being so observant ;-)
My mom was amazed when she saw me in them. I think the reason no one (even I) could see that I had lost this weight is b/c I have been wearing my fat clothes (elastic waist band). I finally got fed up the night before b/c the strap from my tank top I bought 3 months ago started slipping off my shoulder. I was telling my husband it had stretched out, and that I would never buy anything from Old Navy again.
My mom took a pic of me, she said she would show me the before and after. So I could see the difference. I guess it was a difference b/c I've never seen my mom this excited about anything like this.
Sometimes it is those around us who notice the weight loss more. They are the ones that look at us most of the time.
Now it is time to reward yourself by going shopping and buying some new size 8 clothes so you can knock 'em dead!
Woohoo! It's so fun to shop the back of the closet I wish I still had my favorite black leather skirt from college, that would be fitting again I think.
