Blue jeans no longer give me the blues!

Back in January, when I started MFP, I had a pair of jeans in my closet. Not the most attractive pair, but still...they were too small so I thought that they would be a goal jean. In January, I couldn't even get them over my hips. Put them away and forgot about them. In March my pants I could wear in January were feeling big, so I dug out my ugly mom jeans and tried them on. They went over my hips but I lacked about 3 inches in buttoning them. April, I could button them but I looked like someone had shoved my lower half in a sausage casing and twisted in the middle...bulges every where...No where near attractive. Today, I tried them on. And they fit...comfortably. So I wore my tacky dark blue mom jeans with pride and will continue to wear them because 1. They fit!!! and 2. They are the only pair that fits without a belt!

That is awesome!!!!

A similar thing happened to me today, i tried on a pair of my roommates jeans (that are 2 sizes smaller than what i have been wearing). I did not think they were going to fit over my hips bc my hips are much wider than hers and so is my butt lol. but i pulled those jeans on and could zip them just fine. i was so happy and surprised with myself.
