Old pants on!

Ok, so when I started I was a 18/tight 16. Well, they've been.... falling off recently. I got a belt, but they're starting to look silly. It's VERY obvious that there's too much material, and the button isn't sitting behind the belt buckle properly. Plus in my kickboxing class I had to take off the belt for sparring, and lost because I had to be constantly grabbing my pants.

So I pulled a pair of my old size 14's out of the closet this morning. I put them on, zipped them up and THEY FIT! No straining zipper, no stretching over the thighs, no muffin top! I bought THESE jeans when I was 18 though, and apparently my legs are a bit longer because the inseam is too short, especially since I don't have the problem with the 14L that I have.

Goodbye fat pants! I shall not miss you!

    Awesome! Just got into my "old shorts" as well this week. Haven't worn them in years because they became too snug, then I couldn't even begin to zipper them because they were so tight, but after 2 years and 40 lbs lost not only do the fit now, they are borderline too big :):):)
