:bigsmile: I'm floating on cloud nine right now. I went shopping yesterday and a sales clerk asked if she could help me find a size in the shorts I was looking at. I told her, "I'm not 100% sure what size I need... maybe an 8?" She looked me up and down and said, "I don't think you're an 8" [I contemplated hitting her while she was bent over with her back to me digging through the pile of shorts] Then she stood up and said, "Here's a 6 and a 4 just in case the 6 is too big". I felt guilty for my initial thoughts and I nearly hugged her. Turns out the 6 fit perfect. Holy **** I'm a size 6.

THEN when I went home I thought... if I just bought 2 pairs of size 6 shorts maybe I can fit into my skinny jeans again. And after a few squats I can breath in them (haha). My profile picture is my victory dance... also wearing my new (size small!!) tank top.

Life is good.

    Congratulations! I'm guilty of always wearing a size too big for comfort, and assuming a smaller size will be too tight!
    I miss my skinnies!! I'm really jealous of you now!! Well done though :)
