My FIRST pair of Jeans!!

Ok... I was reading Linda's thread about Old navy- And her buying Jeans....

Well- I went shopping Yesterday and ended up in Kohl's

( gonna have to stay away from there!!)

I thought... hmmmmmm..... I need a pair of Jeans, wonder if I can fit any??

I picked up a pair of Gloria Vnderbuilts, picked up a 16 'cause they were Jeans and figured they wouldn't fit..... but am in a 14!!! The 16 was too big!! In JEANS!! I bought 2 pairs- only 17.97 each!!

No one here to take a pic of my butt....... LOL..... or I woulda shared a pic!!!:001_tongue:

You guys Crack me up!!

Thanks for all the wonderful words of encouragement! It really is a milestone, not wearing jeans in 15 years... it was an amazing accomplishment. But........

I think I'm gonna have to wash them in Hot water and put them in the DRYER!!

Did I say put them in the dryer???

yep... abit big!!

So not gonna wear the other pair until I see what happens.

It's crazy- I'm still over 200 pounds, but in a 14........?????? I can't even remember the last time I was in a 14!!

  • 4 weeks later...

I was wearing a very tight 16W (actually they didn't fit anymore) so really a 18 when I had my surgery. I was two weeks out and went shopping. Stupidly bought a size 14 and a 12 when I couldn't find any 16s.

Two months out from surgery, I decided to try the 14 on....took them to be hemmed. It took me 3 weeks to get them back because the place was never open... Wore the 14s on thanksgiving day and my daughter told me they were to big....now taking the 12s to be hemmed. Who would have thought that three months I would drop from a 18 to a 12.....

:w00t:

Good for you Mutti!!

Yep- the sleeve is wonderful for surprises like that!! I've slowed down abit, but still can't believe it- the 14 Jeans are deffinitly tooo big. I just havn't made it shopping to try on a 12- it suxs at times to be 'between" sizes!
