So I'm dancing in my kitchen and I realize that I'm having to tug my jeans up a bit on a regular basis. It finally dawns on me that I'm wearing my size 8's. Not 10's. I was squeezing my butt into 18's maybe a couple years ago and am now having to pull up 8's. This only makes me want to dance more! Yippee! :bigsmile:

Just wanted to say it somewhere to someone. :happy:

    way to go! It's a great feeling isn't it... when I first started losing I hesitated to buy a new wardrobe but now, I get great satisfaction of buying new clothes at every change..

    Thank you! It really did just dawn on me. I'm kind of use to giving my 10's a tug here and there, hence having the 8's, but it did just hit me that I was wearing the 8's. lol

    Sure you will. :wink: I was originally aiming to get back in my 10's, I've kind of exceeded that now :tongue:

    A few weekends I was taking a water aerobics class at the local rec center so I was wearing my bathing suit. Of course I hadn't worn it in awhile so it was really loose so I kept trying to hold it up with one hand or another but when both hands were up, my shorts would fall down. I was laughing so hard the instructor kept asking me what was so funny and all I could say was "nothing".... she had a good laugh at the end of the class.
