Okay, so it's a little colder out this morning and I needed something a bit warmer to wear. I'm going through my closet and see a pair of black jeans, REAL jeans, not the kind with the elastic. I think, hmmm, let me look at what size they are.They are still a big size but I couldn't WOULDN'T even attempt to wear them a few months ago. I go to the room, put on my socks first, then try ........

I tug and tuck in all the necessary places and close my eyes, hoping, hoping, ......YES they button...okay that's one hurdle but will they zip up????????????? ................YES, they zipped up too. Am I dreaming???? no cuz I can still pinch an inch...owwww. I really do have on REAL jeans!!! Do you have any idea how long it's been since I've worn REAL jeans, I mean, even my elastic waiste jeans were too tight so you KNOW I couldn't possibly wear real jean. So, I'm excited about that. Then I pull out a long sleeve shirt and think well.....maybe. I remember the last time I tried it the sleeves were so tight on my arms.....What the heck.....Yep sleeves are loose. Mind you these are still big sizes but at least I am heading in the right direction. Oh, and I weighed in this morning for the biggest loser challenge, and gues what.......3.4 lbs lost this week. So maybe I can get through the day on a good note today, even though I have a meeting with my supervisor who always makes me feel stupid!!!! I won't let her get me down today!!!!

Okay, I'm done.

    I have a pair of low cut gap jeans that my sister bought me for my birthday that I only wore a couple of times before they wouldn't zip anymore. I can get them on but I still have a little bulge over the top so I can't wear my cute tight fitting shirt that I bought at the same time. My short term goal is to get into those by this summer......

    GOOD JOB :flowerforyou: we will share in the glory of your success and it will power us to work towards successes of our own....

    WOW how exciting!!!!! I wish I had kept all my too small clothes. I'll have to look around, maybe I still have something stashed somewhere. Keep up the good work. You're such an inspiration. :flowerforyou:
