I'm Down 6 Sizes!!!!

  • Popular Post

Yesterday I got tired of my super baggy pants...and since I wasn't sure of what size to get I went to Walmart (thought since sizes change so fast I don't want to spend a fortune on clothes). I was so surprised that the size 18W slid right on--no "sucking" in or dancing around to get them zipped...I was amazed because pre-banding I was wearing a size 28W...never thought I would be able to wear a smaller size again. I tried to explain this feat to my husband but he just didn't get it. I am excited and needed to share my excitement with people who will understand and join me in this simple celebration!!!

Way to go!!!! Congrats!! I went shopping tonight with my daughter. I tried on tons of clothes. I had such a good time trying them all on. I tried a variety of sizes to see what size I'm in right now. Some didn't fit yet and some were baggy. I have gone from a 18/20 to a 13 in jeans!!! And from a 18/20 (2XL) shirt down to a large (some XL due to the "girls")!! I tried on a 10 in Levi's and they were a little tight. I should have bought them and hung them up. It would have given me motivation to lose more!! I'll go back in two weeks and try them on again. :D
