Went shopping for pants, and to my surprise, fit into a size 8!

This is quite an accomplishment for my former size 24 self.

    Way to go! Clothing size is always how I monitor my progress, it's more reliable than using scales.. my goal is size 4 or 6 but heck, I'll take size 8! Good for you!

    That's amazing!! Congrats!

    I wore a size 22/24 at my heaviest also. I am currently wearing size 14's that are too big now. I was given a ton of size 14s and now have grown out of them so hoping I can do a clothes swap with someone because I don't want to shop before I get to goal.

    Yayyyyyyyy that's so exciting!! My 10 pants are all baggy and falling off so I'm going shopping this weekend to see if an 8 fits better. Single digits baby!

    CONGRATS!!!! I'm on the cusp of a size 8 as well (I have one pair of size 8's, but I feel more like I'm an 8-10, so I don't count them until I can get into at least two size 8s of two different manufacturer... since clothing sizes are so wildly different).

    Congratulations! As a former size 22, I totally know what you mean! I almost wish the tag with the size was on the outside! :laugh:

    @dhiammarath - I totally know what you mean about size variances! I have jeans that all fit about the same, some from the same label at sizes that vary from a 4 (Levi's and Merona, Old Navy), 6 (Old Navy - fits similar to the 4, Ann Taylor), and 8 (Lucky Brand). :huh: :ohwell:
