My first NSV...that I'm posting

I haven't ever posted in this thread but I was so excited today I had to share! My husband and I were in Target and he wanted me to try on a pair of shorts. So I grabbed the size 8 and hit the fitting room. Got the shorts on, zipped, and buttoned up and they were less than flattering (to put it politely). Naturally I was disappointed but I figured at least I got them on. Took them off and saw the tag and...they were actually size 6! I've never worn a size six my entire life! EVER! I got a pair of size 6 shorts on and was able to button them! I didn't buy them but just knowing I could if I wanted to made my day! I've been up to a size 14 and now I'm almost at a six.

We can do this!

    That's how I feel about my 16's. I tell people I haven't worn 16's since I was 16 but I really wore a little smaller then. Congratulations. Yes it's nice to get compliments from others but it more important how it makes you feel.
