NSV: Size 8!

Yesterday I grabbed a pair of shorts from my closet that I haven't been able to fit into basically since the moment I bought them! All day I was pleased at how nicely the fit, and even noticed that the waist was a little bit loose. I had figured that they were a size 10, because that was my "skinny" size from before. But last night, when I took them off, I saw that they were size 8s. Granted, they're from The Gap and are probably vanity sized. Even so, I'll take it! Doesn't hurt that I looked pretty cute in them too.

    That must feel great! I have a pair of jeans similar, I've never properly fitted in them, and one day I hope to have the same success with them.

    Well done!!! :drinker:

    What an awesome feeling! Your well rounded exercise program is paying off. All that cycling, running, & strength work you've been doing must be making your legs look fabulous!

    Congrats! I dream of the day I'm in a size 8. It's always been my goal. I'm hovering between a 10 and 12 right now so it's not such a far off goal. It'll just take a great deal of work to get there!

    Love it! I bet your face was a picture.

    And Gap don't do vanity sizing in the way some shops do, imho. You're a size 8!! :flowerforyou:
