Silly Success Story....

recently, i have been able to wear (pants) comfortably again as i am down 8 sizes down since june

before they were so tight that if i ate or drank i felt as though my circulation would be cut off..

so today i am wearing a pair of gray cords

and i am sitting in my chair..comfortably..and i am not dying from them being too tight or thinking that when they come off i will have scars where the zipper and buttons go...

and in the past, the buttons were so tight i feared i may get arrested if they flew off and hit someone.

so that is my silly success story

thought i'd share

Carolina, I know you go through some difficult times, but DAMN you're funny!

But about your post, GOOD FOR YOU! I have a closet full of jeans that I intend to wear some day, but always wondered if my circulation would be cut of when I sit. I wear elastic now. But obviously one can wear regular pants! Thanks so much for sharing your exciting news, you inspire me.

But about that pink text, girl, I'm blind, I can barely read your post's! Imagine me squinting and raising my bifocals and getting closer to the computer when I read your awesome post's...too funny! Oh, and then you type, "down 3 sizes down since June." Ahhhh, I couldn't tell if it was an eight or a three! Girl, you makin me feel old!

You're so cool, I will always defend you if someone ever attacks you on here. I'm your Yankee post guardian! Love ya chickie!

That's not a silly success story.. that's a huge accomplishment.. a NSV (non-scale victory)!! That is one of those items on my bucket list of weight loss that I want to accomplish also! That's wonderful...enjoy every moment of fitting comfortably in those pants!
