Went to Old Navy to treat myself on my birthday and summoned all my courage to grab a pair of size 4 jeans. Tried it on in that ridiculously uncomfortable fitting room and was elated to find that it fits! Not tight, just right! I wore size 8 as of January 2011 and dropped a size a month later. This is a big deal because I used to weigh close to 190 lbs and wore size 16 / XL ten years ago.
It's never too late to work on weight loss!

    *jealous*

    I wish I could get down to a size four but I'm already down to 160ish size 10 / 12 jeans and my hip bones are already starting to peek out so I don't think my child bearing hips will allow a size 4. Maybe a 6 at my goal weight if i'm lucky.

    Congrats!!

    I know how exciting that is! A couple years ago, I dropped from a size 10 to a size 6. I couldn't believe it when I tried on those jeans. And every time I wore the jeans I felt like a million bucks! I'm sure you feel the same. Congrats again! :)

    awesome!! I know that its a great feeling.. I tried on some size 10 pants the other day and they almost buttoned haha but it was a big deal because I was a size 17-19(depending on brand) to begin with. Congrats!!!

    Nice and depending on which cut of pants they were (like khaki's) you may actually wear a smaller size...WTG. Im inspired.

    That's great, it's so exciting to fit into a smaller size!
    I tried on a size 12 pair of jeans last week (US 8) and was really happy that I could get into them. There was still a little bit too much muffin top for me to actually buy them, but I think I'll go back and try them again in a few weeks time. It's a great change from size 18 in January.

    WOW that is wonderful. Sounds like you are were you should be... that is amazing! You inspire me, I have size 4 in the closet and haven't had them on in 2 years, in a size 10 jean now but making changes and digging those size 4 out. Stay Strong!
