So how many of you keep a pair of jeans in your drawer that is a size or two too small....just to make it into them some day??

I have a pair of size 6 in my drawer ....and I miss them! I haven't worn them in about 7 years (since my youngest was born)....but they are my goal now and I am determined.

Do any of you do this too? ...or find it too depressing? Some days when I try to squeeze into them, I just get upset. :angry:

    I used to and I finally threw them all away. However, I still manage to collect new ones every year that get too small and I think....yeah, next summer they'll fit. Hopefully this time I can actually manage to fit back into some rather than doing the dreaded clean-out again!

    I have a couple pair of jeans in my closet that say they are size 14 but I don't think they are because right now I can wear a size 14 and I can't even get these over my hips. I'm keeping them as inspiration.

    Yes, I have several but have been debating on getting rid of them... most of them are out-dated now... you know, since I haven't worn them in so long!!!! :embarassed:

    yeah...just think of how good it'll feel to wear them! That's what I mean ... but at the same time...what happens when you're tired of them always being too tight? :grumble: I've thrown away some nice jeans before because of that ... and now I wish I didn't ...when I do manage to lose this weight...I should be back into those sizes....((haha, I'm really pushing myself to fall for it))

    I have several pairs of small jeans at the bottom of my drawer that I won't get rid of because I'm hoping to fit in them someday. Right now I won't even try them on; I need to lose at least 10 pounds first :grumble:

    yup! I have a pair that fit beautifully when I was about 25lbs lighter.....and i can get them on....but breathing is not and option and can we say muffin top???

    I have a dress that won't zip up sitting in my closet as well.....and a few pencil skirts.....and a jacket. lol. I keep trying, though, so I guess I'm not doing so bad!!

    I have a couple of pairs of size 8's that I wore B.B. (before babies), that I would like to wear again. I weighed about 145 lbs then, so that's my goal:smile:

    i still have them. every once in awhile, i try them on and am always excited when I can actually get them past my calves. One day, they might actually make it past my thighs. One day at a time...

    Yeah, I have an awesome pair of Lucky Jeans that my evil friend bought me a couple of years ago.....

    I have never fit into them! I could get them on, but lets just say that people would have lost the use of their eyes if I would have left the house in them! One day, my friends......one day......

    I too have a pair of size 6 Lucky Jeans that I can no longer fit into.

    I'm to the point where I could squeeze into them while lying on the bed and asking my boyfriend to button them for me but nowhere near ready for the public!

    To me, a Lucky Jean is any that I can button and not have a "muffin top"!

    When I started on MyFitnessPal I had 4 pairs of pants hanging on the back of my door. Then, I would try them on every couple of weeks. I can wear 3 of the 4 pairs of pants now, and the 4th I can get zipped an buttoned, but they're really tight... (1.5 months ago, I couldn't even get them to close by sucking in!) I use this for my inspiration and motivation! I need to get some new ones though! I think I'll make my next ones shorts! (We're going to hit 90 degrees this weekend in Utah, so I'm going to be wanting some cooler clothes)
