Pants Too Tight..and Im Excited !!

Ok my little non scale victory.I've lost 57 lbs since my pre op diet 3/23/12 banded 4/6/12. Other than the boobies dropping I couldn't really tell in my clothes.yes some stuff fit a bit loose but I can still where most of my size 26 and 24 clothes. So today I decided to go into the Avenue a plus size store and I tried on size 22 jeans.They fit good.then I said " what the he'll ?!" and pulled a pair of size 20 from the rack.I thought at least I will see how close I get to buttoning them then I can gauge how far I have to go. Well they slipped on and zipped ! I had trouble with the button but managed to get it closed.I had a bit of a muffin top but was excited none the less.I actually use to wear my jeans that tight 15 years ago...this. Was very inspiring to me !! And it helped refocus me.Now I can actually see a size 18 and maybe even 16 .my mind can't comprehend single digit pants sizes yet but I feel good about where I've come.

By this weekend, you might fit into the 18.

Congratulations! What a fantastic NSV!!!

Congrats! Go buy the pants. It is such a boost to wear cloths that fit. We don't realize how baggy our clothes get.

Enjoy your nsv, celebrate with new pants!
