So I've lost 13 lbs..decided to try on some older jeans in size 28. To my surprise they actually buttoned and zipped...still snug..but I could get them on! So I must have shrank some because I normally couldnt get them fastened and I wear a 30/32 jeans!!

Congratulations on the smaller size! I'm thrilled too because last week I bought a size 18 dress! I started out in a size 24 and had a few size 26's. It so much fun for the sizes to go down for a change isn't it? :rolleyes2:

Thats awesome :rolleyes2: I had that happen a few weeks ago and now you almost can't pry the jeans away from me they are my favorite :rolleyes2:

That's so great to hear!!! It's so encouraging to read these stories. Thanks for sharing.

hehe and im not even banded yet...but like i said they fit but are some tight so i think ill wait another week to try them again to see if they are looser!!~

Congrats! its so much fun to have that happen! If you haven't done so, consider taking a photo of yourself in those jeans- hang on to them and keep taking photos as you lose weight- what an inspiration.

woooo!

Froggi, do you shop at Catherine's? They have those jeans in the "new" sizes, from 5-12 I think. But there are different types to fit different body styles. I love them! Wonder if we've ever been shopping at the same time?? LOL

Keep the bigger pair. I kept one outfit of my biggest size. I put them on the other day and couldn't believe the difference. Congrats!!

I second taking pictures of yourself as you lose weight. It is hard for some people to see the weight loss when they look in the mirror but a picture never lies. And yay with the jeans!!

Im am keeping my former favorite pair of jeans a sz24. I couldnt fit into them a year ago and now they are pretty baggy. I want to have that reminder of where I was and where I will be. I say keep the big pair.

Pics are a great thing, until I took some pics I really couldnt see my weightloss at all.

Froggi, that is fantastic. Way to go. I am in a tight 16. I can zip them so I figure why not wear them. Great NSV
