I know this may sound dumb but I just wanted to share my happy moment I had last night. I put on the workout shirt that I wore the first week I started turbofire(that day it was almost too short on me and almost tight). However, last night when I put it on and it was baggy and halfway down my butt. It was huge. I didnt not think there would be a big difference in my clothes since ive only lost 12 pounds. It made me feel good and gave me a reason to keep pushing.

I can TOTALLY relate! Today I am wearing dress capris and a sweater that I haven't been able to wear in the last few years because they wouldn't fit. Now the pants are so baggy I have them cinched with a belt!0

Nice! I love your user name btw! :laugh:0

I was at the store last week looking at some capris to work out in. I automatically grabbed a Large out of habit, bought them, got home, and could not keep them up. They were huge!!! What... NO WAY??? I have to return them for a medium. This was a huge NSV for me. I haven't been able to buy anything but L and XL for the past couple of years. I caught myself doing this the other day too. This time I was looking at work out tops and I went for the L, but had to stop myself. I don't wear a L/XL anymore. Grabbed the medium, tried it on and it fit great.

Way to go girls -- I put on a pair of my "old" jeans this morning and didn't even have to do squats or lunges to stretch them out...LOL!! It put me in the best mood today! 0

Congrats!!! I felt the same way this weekend when I put on an older pair of skinny jeans and had to change because they were so baggy I could take them off and on without undoing the button! :drinker:0
-
I know the feeling and it's great! Fitting into some old pants that I couldn't get past the knees was awesome0

Nice! I love your user name btw! :laugh:
hahaha thanks! Its a nickname lol Ive always had a booty even when I weighed 107.0 -

Isn't it great?! My problem is even more pronounced because I've lost 60 pounds (started before I found MFP), and nothing fits. Yes, pants come off without unbuttoning, but also won't stay up (LOL). Since I'm not finished, I'm slowly replacing wardrobe. I was at that higher weight for many years so nearly all of my clothes are larger - 1x or 2x. Now I'm an XL or L depending. Since I'm not vain I'll continue to wear baggy pants when they have no structure. Now have a few new tops that don't look too bad.
Keep up the good work. And rememer that if you're not finished, don't go out and buy the store. LOL0 -
I tried on some shorts that I haven't worn in almost a year and they fit perfectly! Not only does this feel great but means I don't have to spend money and buy new shorts as the old ones fit!
Yesterday I also manged to jog (slowly) for 30 minutes straight! Something I never thought I would be able to do!0 -
that's a really awesome NSV (non scale victory!).
I had one recently where my swimsuit bottoms kept creeping up on me when I was swimming so I went to "adjust" them out of my rear end, and there was a gap about 1/2 an inch from my skin to the swimsuit. So it's actually too big! I've had this same suit for over 10 years and it's been VERY tight at time or fit but it's never, ever been too big. I smiled for the remainder of my laps!0 -
I have a shirt I got 3 years ago and back then, it fit perfectly. Over the years, it began to get tighter and smaller but I thought it was due to wearing it every week and washing/drying it every week. Then last Friday, I put it on after a year and it fits just like it did when I first received it! It was literally one of the best feelings in the world! Not only that, but my favorite pair of jeans no longer rolls down in the front when I sit down (:0

I am starting to notice my shirts being a bit loose, which I keep denying is happening, but I know it is. lol0

I've been wearing a 11/12 jeans for a while now, and went shopping and grabbed more 11/12s and they were huge! Couldn't find a size 10, so I 'for the heck of it' tried a size 9....and......they fit! I bought them and walked out of the store with a HUGE smile on my face! Def a BIG NSV for me! And some medium shirts are now too big! Woot!0

Luckily, I talked myself into keeping a few of my old favorites in a bag in the closet. Out of curiosity, I grabbed a pair of gray slacks out of the bag this morning and surprised myself when I was able to zip them. They are a smaller size than what I was currently wearing and I am glad I didn't have to run out and buy anything new (that fun will come after goal is reached).0

I went through my closet and drawers and a bunch of stuff is on my desk to give away. I have a lot of wearable shorts, but not much by the way of pants--I'm thought I had more in this size but I'm either missing a box of clothes or I gave them away.
I can wear oversized tops for a while, but I'm going to mail order some jeans so I have something to wear that fits! (Recovering from toe surgery so shopping is out!)0 -

It made me feel good and gave me a reason to keep pushing. The "fat pants" that I bought myself before I found MFP and began to believe in myself are completely unwearable now. It actually took a staff member at my gym about 12 lbs ago to tell me that I *really* needed to buy new pants. :blushing:
The pair I'm wearing right now I will be very glad to swap out when they are legitimately too big . . . because right now they fit perfectly in the morning and look gross and saggy by night-time. I will be more conscious of fit with the next pair and get a pair without *too* much stretch! I have a nice bum now that's getting nicer every day. Life's too short for saggy jeans!0 -
Went to put on a pair of dress pants that I was too afraid to try on over the winter (As I knew they would be tight and uncomfortable) thinking they may fit now, or even be a little big, but I could get away with putting a belt on them.... nope!!! They literally fell right off me! So I tried on the rest of my dress pants with the same result! I cried I was so happy... these are better than the scale victories - and give me so much more confidence and drive to reach my goal.
Thanks for the stories, these have been instrumental in my weight loss - knowing you are not alone, and that it can be done!0 -
I've been in a size 12 pants since having my first son. I had to go shopping for new clothes a month or so ago bc they were all too big and now the 9's and 10's I bought a month ago are baggy 0

I know exaclty how you feel!! I am happy to say I am now in single digits in my pants size!! I moved to GA in Oct of 2011 and was a size 16 and have been working hard. Ofcourse I have had my moments where I stopped my fitness plan. I am now back on track and need to lose about 15 more lbs to get the final look I am looking for!
Congrats to all of you keep up the hard work!!!0 -
Totally relate! I had a happy moment like that yesterday as well. I put on my favorite slacks for work and they went 3-4 inches down from my waist, which is where they normally were. Yay!0
-
I went through my shorts and capris from last summer... size 10... had to donate all of them. Went to the store last week and bought size 6!!!!0
-
My work slacks no longer feel in danger of splitting from trying to contain my booty. 0
-
Took my jeans off without unbuttoning! I immediately bought a pair in a smaller size to celebrate (and they look AWESOME btw).
