You look amazing in your jeans, way to go! I tried a pair of 18's on at the store the other day and they were very snug, but my next big goal is to be in a 16 by the end of summer!
Wow, you look fantastic! You've got such a good figure as well- even when I was quite slim I always had a round belly but your stomach is so flat.
I'm trying to get into my old jeans at the moment, I've got a collection of really nice jeans, none of which fit me! I can get them all on but not zipped up, I'm probably going to have to lose around 14-16 pounds to fit into them comfortably (basing that on the fact that when I was 10 pounds lighter they did up but were too tight).
Wow!!!! What a big change!
I will join the jean challenge! Right now I am in a 16 "normal" or 14 from the plus sized store. My goal is to hit 14 "normal". My 16 normals are getting loose but I'm still about 5lbs away from *comfortably* fitting the 14's.
Update: I am now officially a 14 normal! I bought a pair of shorts from Sears tonight, a 14, and they fit nicely. They even had extra room in the tummy!! (they didn't have the style in a 12 but I don't think I'm quite there yet anyway).
The really awesome part is I remember shopping for jeans there last year, trying on some 18's and they were tight in the waist and extremely ill-fitting.
Jennie, how awesome for you!! What a difference you can see in 11 days too. Your stomach is really coming in and there is a nice curve to your hips and waistline.
I was so excited the other day when I could get into jeans that I haven't worn for years! Size 18 Levis. I love the way that I look in Levi jeans and I haven't been able to wear them in years. (The larger Levi's just never fit right on me.) I have a pair of 16 Levi's from years ago that I'm trying to get into.
I so know what you mean about jeans that you wear so much that they fall apart. I still have jeans with holes in them in various places and for some reason I can't bear to throw them out since I loved them so much.
i havent bought a pair of jeans.. all my jeans are in high numbers like 33, 34.. etc not in 16, 14.. my 34'si wear my belt if i dont they fall right off.. picked up a pair of 16 shorts, before iw as only fitting SOME 16's but.. i picked up some fitted shorts and they FIT! and are a bit loose! woot woot.
I've basically given up on jeans wearing for the summer, but I'm hoping by fall I can buy myself a new pair of my favorite petite curvy fit jeans in a 29. I started out wearing a 32 (and they were pretty snug) but the last time I went shopping I squeezed into a pair of 30s (!!!).
aww thanks! Jennie, you are a real inspiration to me You work DAMN hard and it makes me realize i can do it too! That and we're i think similar in age so its kinda cool too
