This morning I had a little time to spare before getting ready for work so I thought I would look through some clothes that have been boxed up in the spare closet.

Well, I found some jeans that I bought years ago when I was doing Weight Watchers. I was so proud when I bought those jeans because I hadn't been able to wear REAL jeans, no elastic, in 10 years. They are a size 16. So I decided this morning to try them on just to see how much farther I needed to go to get into them. Well...........turns out, not too far. They buttoned and zipped up and everything. Still a little too snug to wear comfortably but by next month I should be sporting them!!
I am sooooooooo excited. I can't wait for my hubs to get home so I can show him!!!!

Have a great day everyone!!

    I have been working on those 29lbs since January but haven't been really serious until the last couple of months. I still have a long, long way to go but now I KNOW what I have to do to get there and there is no stopping me!!!

    That is awesome. :smile: Keep up the great work. I have a box in my closet of old jeans. I know that right now I can't fit into them but I am hoping that one day I will be able to again.
