NSV - Old Jeans!

Posts: 24
I heard news today that the event I had to go to tomorrow had a dress code. The most important aspect of it was to wear jeans.
You see, I haven't worn jeans in literally MONTHS because the jeans I had were tight in all the wrong areas and because I have gained a lot of weight since I bought them, I had an uncomfortable muffin top. I refused to buy bigger sized jeans and just wore leggings, dresses, and skirts.
In panic, I had to look for those jeans that I let rot in my closet. I slowly dragged each pant leg up my legs thinking I would need all the help I could get just so it could fit around my thighs.
Lo and behold, it fits. And I didn't even have to suck in. No muffin top, either! And I could sit down with no fear of mooning anyone.
Now I can gladly say I'm a size 10 without lying to myself. Or to anyone, for that matter (:
Biggest NSV I've ever had (:

Well done, bet it feels great! Lol'd at the mooning comment! I hate that!
Im exactly where you were at the moment, living in dresses and leggings in work. Jammies ends and my husbands t shirts at home!
I have one pair of casual jeans that close on me, but none of my dressy jeans fit me yet!0 -
Yay!! What a good feeling
I had a pair of jeans that were folded away for 6 years as they were too small to fit, but too new and expensive to throw away. Now they are back in the drawer but because they are too big!! 0 -

Wow, that's great! I can't wait to outgrow my clothes (:0 -
THIS IS SO COOL!!!! I srsly just begun my diet yesterday, and I am looking for all the motivation I can get. Leggings, dresses and skirts are my life saviors right now, bc my muffin top is out of control LOL. I srsly don't even CONSIDER jeans when dressing anymore, and had just about given up on ever wearing them again, but now I read this and WOW!!!! It makes me wanna hang in there, pull through and get my butt back in the gym!! Thanks for sharing and giving out great inspiration vibes- and congrats in having left the sucking-it-in days behind you!! Bravo!!0

Yes, thank you! You'll definitely get there, too!
I literally gave up my jeans during the past few months. I'm glad to have a few more choices in clothing again (:0
