I started off at a size 16 (pushing 18). Yesterday, I bought my first pair of size 8 jeans! They feel fabulous! And everyone's been commenting on how skinny I look today. ^.^ Only one size to go until I'm at my goal. Size 6 jeans, here I come!

    JEALOUS! I can't wait- I dont' even remember my age when I wore size 8- I am presently in size 12 or 10 depending on the brand and fit. Though that is good for me because I was in 16 when I first signed on here:) Keep it up! Tell us your secrets too!
  • SOOOOOO EXCITINGGGG!!!!!!! I can't wait till I hit size 7/9

    WOW How exciting! I wear size 16 (some 14) now and my goal is to lose 52 lbs total, I still have 36 to go.

    Size 8? GEESH! I would be happy in a size 12 right now LOL

    Way to go!!!

    Wonderful!!!

    I cant' wait to get there myself. :)
  • I LOVE this because I just went to Kohl's with some Kohl's cash and bought a pair of size 8 jeans that are just a smidge snug (I'm wearing them now trying to stretch them, lol), and a pair of size 8 capris that fit!! AND a size 6 dress (it has a high, stretchy waist band, but still!!!). I was a size 18, and it is still tripping me out that I can fit a 12 or a 10, and now an 8!

    Congratulations!! It's a wonderful feeling :)

    That's awesome!!! Right now I'm finally fitting pretty well into my 10s and can't wait 'til I get back down to almost 8s and then 8s! I've NEVER been a single digit in my life. EEE, can't wait. Congratulations, btw! hehe
  • How tall are you? I'm in a 10 right now and I think my goal is an 8, but I'm not sure. Maybe 6. I'm just shy of 5'9.

    CONGRATS, by the way. I started at a size 18, so I can totally understand your excitement! :drinker:

    I'm 5'4. I'm also jealous of all your tall person calories, lol. Honestly, my goal was a 12--and I never thought I could get there. I'm so excited to be working toward a 6 now!
