The little black dress

Does anyone have that little black dress that you have grown out of..and kept for motivation??

Well I do! When I first started my weightloss journey (June 2011)...I couldn't hardly get it up..and only half way zipped :noway:

but NOW...I don't even have to unzip it to put it on!!! I can just pull it up and it's kind of loose!!! :love:

That makes me happy..and it motivates me even more to know that I'm actually getting somewhere! Looking in the mirror, I can't really tell, but apparently what I'm doing is working because the black dress doesnt lie!!!!

I just want to say THANK YOU!!! To all of MFP friends, and MFP community because you guys are what keeps me going every day!!!
Lets keep kickin' *kitten* together, shall we!?!??

    I kept my favorite pair of jeans from my college days(I'm 36 now). I can actually zip them up after 17 years, but they are TIGHT! Pretty soon I will look great in them!

    I have a little black vest, does rhyming count? It's not 'little' per say but had a tough time buttoning it when I got it and now it is a little loose.

    I had some little green pants :smile:
    I had them custom made when I visited India about 8 years ago and I have grown out of them and into them a couple of times in the last few years.
    Now they are definitley too big, I think I need to buy another pair of "aspirational pants" to use as a guide for the right weight for me.
