I was swapping rooms with my daughter, who is due to have a baby any time now, and I came across tons of stashes of her pre-pregnant clothes!! I first was ready to scream and throw a fit, then I was like, hmmmm, let me see what all is here... I have now scored a few shirts of hers that I bought and really liked, some of her FOX shorts that I thought were totally cute and the best of all....JEANS!! I don't even like them. Thought they were the worst things ever made. BUT, since I have been changing my wardrobe and shoe style due to the weight I have lost, I am now noticing them a lot more. Anyhow, she had a few pairs that I liked so of course I had to look at the size. Crap! Too small :sad: No wait! Maybe...hmmmm..let me just try and see what happens. Bottom line....drum roll please..... THEY FIT!! Did I mention THEY FIT??!! :huh: I had to do a double take in the mirror and make sure it wasn't my imagination. Nope, sure enough, THEY FIT!! Then we come to the size...another drum roll please.... 5/6..yes, I said 5/6 and THEY FIT. If someone would have said that I would wear that size again, I would have told them to lay off the crack pipe.. Well, I am wrong and I couldn't be more EXCITED about it :laugh: Anyhow, thanks to hard work, dedication and MFP I am on my way to finding the real ME

I didn't expect it and am still shocked by it...I had to ask my daughter if she was sure there wasn't a 1 in front of the number just to make sure! I am still in shock...WOW!
