PANTS, public enemy #1, no more!

Pants used to be my nemisis. I was VERY pear shaped, big behind and thighs, nothing fit right. At my heaviest (a mere 6.5 months ago) i wore a very tight fitting 18W, probably needed the 20, but did not want to admit this. When i lost about 50 lbs, i bought new jeans, size 14's I was happy since it was about 10 years ago i last wore this size......Lately i have noticed that they were becoming looser and starting to hang.

Today I tried on several kinds/brands of size 12 jeans and i can say i am comfortably in a size 12!! i have not worn a 12 since high school.

Also tonight, my mom gave me a brand new pair of target pants, size 10... i thought there is no way i can even get these on let alone button and zipped....surprise surprise, i can get them on, buttoned, and zipped!!! I would not wear in public yet as there is muffin top going on, but i cannot remember ever wearing a 10!!!! soon i will be there!

It used to be agony trying to find some pants that worked for my body type, while i am still a pear, it is getting easier and easier to dress this body of mine! I love it,

Next stop, size 10, then onto an 8, i never dreamed of being an 8! but now i can because i am at my original goal of a size 12!
