This is probably really uninteresting to everyone but I'm happy about it! All my life I have never been able to wear boots due to my mahoosive legs but yesterday I managed to put on and do up every single pair I tried on :-). I was so happy I even bought a pair so I now own my first ever pair of boots!

    Hey, that's awesome! It might not be interesting to many people, but it's important to you and that's why it matters.

    ENJOY YOUR BOOTS!!

    Congratulations to you! I love boots and I too was never able to wear them because I could not fit my legs into them. I can now, and have been wearing long boots since Spring and I love it! Wear them proudly.

    That is awesome!! I can totally relate!!
  • That's so exciting! I usually have to buy wide-calf boots but I have a regular pair that i've never been able to pull up all the way but the other day, almost without even realizing it, I was able to pull them all the way up to my knees. Small things like that make such a huge difference. Keep up the good work!
  • I am so in love with boots but unlucky it takes a hard time to find a fitting one
    yesterday i saw a pair of knee length boots at Stradivarius i fall in love with
    the pain of not having them made me want to kick more
    I really understand your elation now :D well done
  • This was me too!! I loved the moment when I could put my wellies on with my jeans tucked in!! :)

    Excellent! A dear relative is getting heavy and it is almost impossible to find boots. There is just no diverting the person.

    Great NSV!!! I experienced the same thing a couple of months ago. Unlike you though, I wasn't able to purchase a pair because the ones I liked were all too big in the ankles. Ha, ha, ha, ha. I didn't mind though because I was just thrilled that I could actually zip them all the way up. Yeah, you!!!!!

    My friend (who is also losing weight) and I had a conversation about this recently ... Part of our motivation to start seriously looking to lose weight was that we couldn't zip our boots any more and our thighs rubbed when we wore cute dresses. Totally understand. Awesome NSV!
