It's not a huge goal but at least I reached my first goal! I have had a pair of size 18 skinny jeans hanging in my closet for over 3 years now. I only wore them once...PRE pregnancy. They never fit again! When I started MFP almost 2 weeks ago, I couldn't get them up my thighs! OMGosh...that was embarrassing :0( So for the heck of it, I tried them on last night. Now mind you, I'm only on Day 12 with MFP, so I wasn't expecting what I got! The jeans went up my legs...and OVER my hips...I just couldn't button or zip them without having to lay down on my bed to do so....so although I couldn't get them completely on without cutting off my circulation, I feel pretty confident that by the end of February, I will be wearing them comfortably :0)

    Good for you! You'll definitely be wearing them comfortably by the end of Feb... they may even be too big for you by the end of Feb! :happy:

    How cool is that! I tried on a pair of jeans I had and totally understand that feeling. Its better then weighing yourself and seeing a weight drop. Congrats!
