Hi All! This my 12th week on MFP and I've been seeing lots of progress, feeling better, dropping lbs, and body fat. But like we all know, the forest can be hard to see through the trees so its nice to concrete measuring posts. Today, I hit a big one.

I fit in my favorite pair of jeans from high school. Over the years I have gone back and forth between being after to fit in them and not being able to button with serious muffin top. Now, while I could still look better in them, the fit isn't too far from the one I had when I was an active high school athlete.

This just encourages me to keep after it until I look the best I ever have. At 4 weeks, I was feeling better. At 6 and 8 weeks, even more. But I still wasn't really fitting those jeans nicely. Now, at 12 weeks, I do. I can't wait to see what I look like at 16 weeks :)

    That's great motivation!

    In my case I think I'll have a to buy a pair of jeans a size smaller than I am now and keep trying to fit in them, because when I was a teenager I was a lot heavier than I am now and I certainly don't want to fit in those ever again!
