I have been swimming in my size 18 and 18W pants but too afraid to try a 16. This morning i pulled out a pair of shorts i have not worn in over 4 years (prior to kids and pregnancy). They were size 16, not only did they fit, they were a little loose.

I went to the mall today and decided to try a lee jean size 14...... guess what! They fit too with only slight muffin top! I did not buy the jeans and am planning on suffering in my 18's for awhile because i am cheap!

here i am after my workout (why i am all sweaty) in my size 16 shorts

Here i am in the size 14 jeans at lunch time today

Also someone randomly at my work asked what i have been doing because he could tell i lost a crap load of weight! It feels good!
