    wow you totally sound like myself. I almost always wear my hair pulled back, idea of makeup is just a bit of eyeliner, own one pair of pants, one pair of capris, a couple pajama bottoms and 2 tshirts with armpit stains and 2 t shirts that are too big and have a couple holes, wear flip flops year round.

    Congrats on your loss. Getting into smaller clothes is always exciting and makes you feel on top of the world.

    That's amazing! Well done you! x

    I too am nervous about trying the next size down!

    I have been a UK size 12 (America Size 8 I think) in jeans for as long as I can remember, as I carry the most of my weight in my belly and chest.

    My jeans are becoming loose, but I don't want to try the next size down in case they don't fit! Especially with my tops etc!

    Hopefully I will muster up the courage though and just do it eventually! aha!

    How on earth did the size 20s not fall off you?! That's amazing!

    I don't think I'll have such a joyous experience with pants sizes because of my gigantic hips, haha... go you! Enjoy the new pants, and I hope you reach your goal of size 12s soon :)

    You look around a UK size 10-12. How did you get a size 20 to stay on? Braces? A belt? lol!
    Well done. Amazing work!

    WTG! And yes, I, too, am amazed that those jeans stayed up. Remember you are worth it, it is ok to spend some money on yourself and buy another pair of jeans when you need them. You did not mention the tee shirts, I'm guessing they are probably do for replacement, too. Go buy a few new ones and enjoy your new look. You deserve it. Great job!

    Hey everyone! Thank you SO much for the kind words!! :heart: I would love friend requests from any of you that would like to send them! Im always a bit of a nut, and joking around, goofing off & trying for a laugh.. not always successful, unless you want to laugh at my attempt (and failure) at trying to be funny, but thats okay too! lmao! :wink:

    Also, i changed up my profile pic for my before and "during" pic.. day one and then my today pic... yes, in my new jeans.. dont tease me, i left the tag on them because it said "14" on them. Hubby said i HAVE to take the tags off before i wear them out.. but i might just tuck it in instead. :laugh:

    Anyhoo, thanks again for reading my "almost" successful story & cant wait to enjoy you all on my friends list!

    PS.. i hope you dont get offended easily. My Elliptical is "Mr. Elliptical" to me, and i take him for hard, long rides, where he makes me wet, sweaty and gasping for air.... he makes my legs tremble, and my body shake... desperate for release.. but wanting more.. lol.. hey, ya gotta keep exercise interesting, right? :smooched:
