Dear Size 18 jeans,
Yes, I know, we spent a few long, hot, humid summers together. You were always there for me when I was so embarrassed of my thighs that I'd rather sweat to death than show them. You never cared that my legs were a reflective shade of white. You were with me through picnics, birthday parties, pool parties, 4th of july fireworks, zoo trips, amusement parks, and countless other sweltering adventures. But alas, it's 85 degrees outside today, and I'm no longer the person I once was. I've changed. You haven't. I think It's time we went our separate ways. It's not you - it's me. I assure you, I will never forget you. And so I wish you well, size 18 jeans, and I sincerely hope you enjoy being sold at a yard sale tomorrow.
Cordially,
The Chick in the Brand-New Size 10 Shorts

    Congrats...I thought this was going to be another "I'm quitting because I ate good for 3 weeks and only lost 2 lbs" post.

    What a great success story...I'd say "enjoy your summer", but I have a feeling you're going to do just that :drinker:

    Good for you :) Shorts are WAY more comfy in the Summer than pants. It makes so much of a difference

    Love this! Great job!! (:

    How you were sounds like me right now, unfortunately. Sitting here in my size 18 jeans... ):
    BUT! Thankfully, I'm already on the right path of healthy weight loss, and I hope I can write a similar letter someday!

    You're inspiring!

    That actually sounds just like me. I was in 16-18's forever, even crept up a few higher than that. Now I can sport 10's, too. :drinker: But I'm still bright white :grumble:
