Today I put on a pair of pants size 18 (an old pair from my senior year of high school which was 7 years ago). They FIT. Not enough to wear every day, but I got those suckers buttoned! They are still too tight on my belly (damn 2 kids and a c section, my stomach will never be the same!)

That being said though, I still can't believe I got them up, and buttoned. I've been wearing a size 22 for years now. I can't believe my old high school pants fit me. I am looking forward to when they fit comfortably enough to wear!!

I know a size 18 isn't "thin" or small by any means, but for me, its a big deal.

    Yay, Jen! It's so cool getting back into "skinny" clothes. I know it must be encouraging to you as well. I lost my waistline with my kids as well but some things are worth losing. (: Hope your baby is feeling better.
