Half my size literally

Today I bought a pair of size 12 jeans and they fit! When I started my weight loss journey I was a size 24 almost a size 26 which means as of today I am literally half my size. I still have more to go to get to my goal weight but it felt like something I needed to celebrate and wanted to share.

    Wow that is awesome! I can't wait until I can say the same. I've started at a size 24 too. 4 kg (9 lb) down this week, 61 kg (134 lb) to go.

    Congrats! I'm almost there - started at a tight 24, now I'm in 14s. The day I fit in 12s I will be over the moon :)

    Well done! I was in a similar boat to you. Starting at a 24 and dreaming (in my absolute WILDEST dreams) that I'd be a 12. Now I fit into size 8 jeans and size 6 tops, which is shocking to me but very welcome of course!

    Well done again, you should be so incredibly proud of yourself :).

    Well done you! I started at a UK size 30 and am now down to 22/24 (I can JUST get into a 22 but a 24 is a better fit just now) and it's a great feeling to be able to get a wider variety of clothes as I get smaller - I'm sure you know what I mean!

    Having said that, I have kept ONE pair of each of my trousers from each stage, not because I have any intention of going up again (yes, famous last words) but because I visually want to see how far I have come. When I get to where I want to be (and note I say "when" - not "if" - and that's a change of attitude on my part already), I am going to lay them all out, one on top of another and take lots of pictures!

    But no, really, well done you - you must be SO pleased and proud! :happy:
