I started out January 1, 2012 with a New Year's Resolution to lose weight. My ten year high school reunion was looming and I needed to drop a few pounds to feel confident there. I weighed 175 lbs. (am 5'9" by the way). I set the goal to get to 160lbs. and through Zumba and counting calories on MFP, quickly got to that goal and made a new goal of 155lbs. I hit that goal in April, then fell of the wagon for a few months after my reunion was cancelled. I'm back on the wagon now, counting calories, walking, and doing Jillian Michael's 30DS and I'm down to 153-154 and trying to tone up. Most of my clothes are really loose on me and I was worried that I wouldn't have a decent pair of blue jeans that I could wear without a belt, so today I went to WalMart to get a fairly cheap pair. I picked up a 10 Long and an 8 Long. Well, guess what...... the 8 fit! I have never been in a size 8. I was a 12 forever and ever! I'm so excited, almost cried right there in the WalMart dressing room. Just wanted to share!
