Yes, not a small size, but a 14 Leggiadro I have had in my closet, and the last time I had them on ...3 weeks or so ago, I could get them on but I would NOT wear them in public. NOW I am wearing them to the football game Friday night! Like I am in HS again, not just watching my son play!

I have 3 more pairs of pants/jeans in my closet as I loose weight.
My dream---no, not dream--GOAL jeans I purchased last week at TJMAXX ($20) size 10, and I think they are Lucky. I have doubts my hips will be able to fit, but I guess I am not good at evaluating how AROUND my weight is when I only see the front in the mirror.
The best was at a 'weak' moment when teaching today, I remembered I put them on last night!!!! That awesome thought/feeling made it SO much easier to say NO!

God Bless 1% spandex!

    Congrats!

    And don't bring your self down by saying a 14 isn't a good accomplishment! The average size of an american woman is a 14! That's why you have a harder time finding clothes in 12 - 14's at say TJMAXX etc, because many woman wear them!

    :happy:

    During school I wanted to take a cookie from a table in the teacher's room---but I did not, because remembering putting on those jeans, and the feeling, was so great it was easy to pass up that cookie!!!

    Peace

    Isn't it great? Sometimes people see you, though and ask questions. Then the other person replies, oh she can't have that. She's on a diet! Kills the moment at times, but still proud of it. :bigsmile:
