I started my journey on 6-1-2010 with a 42" waist. I've been buying clothes at thrift stores to get me by until I reach my goal. I'm 4 pounds from that now. I was shopping with my son and decided to try on some jeans that were a 34" waist, the 36" were getting a little loose. I haven't been that size for about 15 years. To my pleasant surprise, they fit so I had to buy them.

    WTG! I myself experienced the same joy today when I went thrift shopping. I had been in 16s for quite a while and found myself fitting into 12s and 14s. Yay! I share your joy!

    Congrats to you!!! I know how good that can feel, that's for sure.

    Today, as I was running late for church, I realized I didn't have any clean pants. I reached into the back of my closet and pulled out a pair of size 12s which I haven't been able to wear for nearly a year and today they fit!!
