NSV NSV...JEAN SHOPPING

[mp8btpc 32]

I bought two new pairs of jeans two weeks ago at Kohls and they were size 12 but a tiny bit loose, I wore one and put the others up and now two weeks later I am going to have to take those back and get a size 10, I bought one new pair from Target and they were 10's also! havent been a size ten in a long time. I was wearing 14's but had gained 15 pounds in those and stretched em so I am sure I would have needed 16 if I had bought any jeans right before surgery.

I am going to post the pre-op pics and my success thus far when I hit the 40 pound loss mark. I am hoping I can lose that 5 pounds in the next two weeks. It is also really awesome because the Tummy Tuck I had 3 years ago is finally showing!

I am excited and pleased...i am almost giddy.

Yahhh awesome NSV! goes to show while you are still losing it might be best to buy cheaper clothes until you hit your stable weight. Must feel great to get into a size 10.

That is awesome! I'm currently wearing size 12 jeans from kohls, so I'm right behind ya -I too was a 14 or 16 misses depending on style. Yesterday I bought a pair of size 8 Bill Blass jeans at Marshalls for $12.99. They are NOT true 8's at all, maybe 10's, and I can't wait to wear them

Ahhhh thank you all, it feels great. I measured myself and I have lost almost 5 inches off my waist alone! I am certainly shrinking it feels so great.
