I met one of my goals so I got to go shopping! We are going on vacation on Saturday and I needed some new pants and was hoping to get a new swimsuit. (Going to Florida) Well, my jeans are now a size 12! I haven't worn a 12 since I was a teenager! They are a bit snug but they are stretch jeans so the longer I wear them the more comfortable they will get. And I was really surprised that the swimsuit I got fits as well as it does! I am really self conscience about my thighs because they are very white and not so toned! But the rest doesn't look TOO bad. Maybe I'll post a picture on the site one of these days. (I don't want to scare anyone! Might need to wear sunglasses!) I feel a lot better about myself, even though I still want to lose another ten pounds or so. So I am pretty excited about that! It was really nice to go buy a couple of things, especially in smaller sizes! I hope I get to buy more stuff in another ten pounds! I'll probably have to!:bigsmile:
