Did I really just do that? Did I really just buy a size 16? Does it matter they are stretchy? Does it matter they are from Wal-mart? Does it matter that they are a little snug? Does it matter that I feel like I will be able to wear these forever? I can’t imagine ever growing out of (or shrinking out of) these. I started out a size 24. I dug out my old size 18 and that was the smallest jeans I’ve had. I wore a size 16 about 9 years ago for just a little bit. I haven’t worn anything smaller than that since high school. I want to do a happy dance, but I’m still saving that for onederland! I love my band!

Julie Ann~ WTG! I saw your post and I just did the same thing! I went to get some new pants and decided to venture into the "normal" people section first, just to see. I was so shocked when I picked up size 16 and they FIT! Woo Hoo!

Keep up the good work!

WOW! How AWESOME!!! I can't wait to have that feeling. I'm scheduled for surgery Feb 25th!!! WTG!!!!

Whoot! "wear these forever"...I'm thinking NO! ...and they say you can't go back to High School

Woo hoo! CONGRATS!!!

Hell no, it doesn't matter that it came from Wally-World, or that it's snug! You're out of FAT GIRL CLOTHES! Celebrate! Sing, dance, tell total strangers that you wear a size 16; I would! I enjoy reading your blogs. You're very positive and I love that! I get very tired of the whining and complaining that I read so often in some blogs.

If you want it, you've got to bleed for it.
