The scale hasn't been budging as I would like... but I took advice and went to buy Jeans that fit so that I know if I gain or lose inches.

Oh my gosh! :noway:

I'm an Old Navy, the sweetheart, classic rise, boot-cut, stretch, short ....

SIZE 4! They aren't even snug! I even bought a belt. Size s/m. Holy S_ _ _ _! Roflol

I guess the last 3 weekends of Charity & regular Run/Walks ARE paying off in the form of inches.

OH! and I bought new walking shoes... new Asics @ TJ Max for $40.00 . I wore out the other pair this weekend... my arch started hurting... so I knew it was time.

    YAY!!! I :heart: jeans. I have a problem with buying a lot of them. :bigsmile: Unfortunately I have an obsession with ones that are more money than I should be paying for them. :grumble: :grumble:

    I hear you there. Until I am confident in my size and that it might stay that way... I'm not going crazy with buying lots or expensive Jeans. One pair of $30 will work for now.

    I love the hair tie trick. You use a rubber band to loop through the hole from the button to make your jeans a little bigger when you need to.

    Just use a hair tie to extend the button to the buttonhole...makes you able to wear regular jeans a little longer by allowing the bump some space! Just have to wear a long enough shirt or tank top to cover that part! :wink:

    HOORAY for new pants!!!! Congrats to you! :flowerforyou:

    The hair tie trick worked for me for... two days. :sad:

    And sadly, I have jeans in like 3 different sizes smaller than what I started out (but I'm already one size smaller!!!!) so I don't get to go shopping for jeans any time soon! I'm not crazy to keep that many sizes, I promise. I got fat trying to get pregnant, pumping myself full of hormones and then once I got pregnant, I got really, really fat and I'm too stubborn to throw out perfectly good jeans when I'll wear them again soon (hopefully)!
