Today i tried on a pair of pants I have not warn since 2003. They can no longer zip up- in fact I cannot even bring the zipper sides to touch. pretty tight in the legs. My new challenge is to fit into those pants. I will be trying them on a couple of days a week and keep you posted on my progress.

I have done bum, abs and muffin top exercises this morning already to start me on my quest.....

pics to come soon.

    I got into my target jeans (hadn't fitted them since August 2004 when I got pregnant for the first time) a month ago!

    I have a pair of "those" pants too. Hoping to get into them like you are...maybe even surpass them since they are still a size 10 and my goal is a 6/8. :) Good Luck on your journey!!!! I wish you nothing but the BEST!!!! :)

    I think we all have a pair of THOSE PANTS. I have a pair of jeans that I bought a few years ago (the first time I dieted) that still have the tags on them. I'm determined to fit into them and finally cut the tags off! Just a few more inches to go.

    Best of luck to you!

    my pair of "those pants" are my work trousers that i have to wear every day, i could feel them getting tighter, so i ordered a bigger size, and now they are too tight too, i've split the inner thigh seam three times and they are certainly a constant reminder of what i am trying to achieve. bring it on!!

    i used to listen to a motivational podcast that said that one should wear THOSE PANTS around all day, even if they totally don't fit.... and this will be motivation to not eat.... but sure if i want to do that--- specially when they do not close yet... but I definitely will try them all the time.

    right now I have about 5 cm to go before the zipper sides even come together
