it feels SO good to wear clothes that actually fit. i always try to hold out as long as possible with buying new (read: smaller size) clothes. i end up looking like i'm swimming in my work attire, wearing belts at all times, and pretending i'm intentionally going for the "baggy-clothes" look.

last night i finally caved in and bought a new pair of dress-pants (..and i only got them because they were on clearance for $14.98 at the Gap!). to my surprise, i fit in a size 6 (!!?!?!?!?!?!?!).. i have been wearing my old size 12's and size 10's all this time!

thinking about going through my old stuff to donate it all, and buy all new MUCH smaller stuff. it's crazy how much more confident a great-fitting pair of new pants are making me feel.. and it's also nice to hear co-workers say "you look really slim today!"

  • Must feel AMAZING! I too used to be a size 8/10. Now I fit into size 6 jeans! It felt so good I wanted to cry.

    My next goal is to fit into size 4s! (which may a bit too ambitious of me, but why not try!) Plus size 2s and 4s are mostly the sizes left when things go on sale. Save money!
