Bought some new clothes

At the end of august/beginning of September, when I started here, my waist was about 40 inches. I had just a couple pairs of pants and shorts I could wear, size 14, but I probably really needed a size or two up.
Surprisingly quickly, my waist started shrinking, and my clothes started fitting.
Next thing I knew, some of those pants I couldn't even wear before were starting to feel loose. Then they got annoying- wouldn't stay up.
A couple weeks ago I got to the point where I realized I would have to buy new clothes. Unlike many women, I hate to shop. Hate it!
Combine that with the disbelief that I had actually lost enough weight to need new clothes, and I put it off. Well, even the "skinny jeans" are clearly to big. I had to do something.
I measured my waist, thinking it can't be true. It's 32.5 inches!
I bought two new pairs of jeans on-line (outlet prices) in brands that usually fit pretty well. Size 12 for now.
I'll let you know when I get them how they fit.
