I'm counting this as a NSV! Maybe..

Last night I went to the mall with my family. I wore a size 16 jean. Yes, they are now baggy. As I was walking my underwear started to slide down. At first I was mortified. They would have hit the floor if not for the jeans! It was so embarrassing! My family flanked me so I could (as discreetly as possible) hook a finger around the hip and hold them until I found a restroom.

If I ever was in doubt that the sleeve is not working just because I've stalled this week, I'm not anymore.

Guess it's time to go down a size :smile1:

That was my very first NSV. I had to buy new ones only two weeks out!

I'm still wearing the same ones... but I have noticed that they are definitely sitting higher around my hips (too high!) and are starting to slip down.... guess it is time for new ones for me as well!

I just bought some new undies this weekend! :) That's definitely a NSV!

These are always my *favorite* NSV stories... CONGRATS!! Now get ya some smaller clothes. :biggrinjester:

LOL! Definitely an NSV. I had a similar experience with my pants coming down in spin class! It freaks me out how this happens but you are so right! When we assume a stall or small loss means it's not working we are so wrong!!! I think it's the opposite: this is working so well, we are changing so quickly, we cannot absorb the changes and we are shocked when our clothes fall off of us LOL!!! Congratulations!!!! Happy shriking! :-)

Thankfully I'm short and I have all boys, so the coverage was adequate :)

But I now know how those kids with the super baggy pants must feel. Always having to pull them up... What a pain. It's kind of like step step step lift, step step step lift :D
