I've lost about 60 lbs since I very first started. I used to be in sizes 12-14. Most of my life I was always kind of big, usually in a 8-10 pair of pants.

Today I bought my first pair of new shorts in over a year since my old ones were way too loose to even wear and I was SHOCKED to find that a size 8 didn't fit like Im normally used to wearing, and a size 6 didn't fit either!

I had to get a size 4! Y'all I have NEVER fit in a size 4 before! I seriously almost cried tears of joy!

So don't ever give up or let someone tell you that you won't fit a certain size - just keep at it and let the
pieces fall where they may :)

    Awesome!! Can't wait until I go single digits. I've lost around 23 lbs now and haven't bought new clothes just yet. Even though my clothes are now bigger than before. My jeans still fit my legs and still button up, but really sag. I just wear a belt. Lol I think I am a size 10. Can't wait till I'm an 8!!!
