Smaller shorts!!

For those who love mini accomplishments... here's one for you!
In June I got off maternity leave and started flying again. I tried on an old pair of uniform shorts that i could only get on if I would lie on the bed. And when I stood up there were huge, disgusting bulges on either side of the waist band! So, I have since lost 10 1/2 lbs and 4 inches in my waist and and almost 2 inches in my hips and now I can get the shorts on super easy standing up!! There is still a very slight bulge above the waist band which I can suck in a bit and it goes away. But the one below is still a tad too ... bulgy (lol.. new word!) for me to feel comfortable wearing to work yet. I had a c-section so that bottom part is forever changed and will be the absolute last place I lose weight and tighten up. All y'all c-section mommas know what I'm talking about.
But, short story long, I can fit into the shorts!!!!! Woo Hoo!!!
Do y'all have any mini accomplishments y'all would like to share!?!?!

I've had two c-sections, so I know what you mean. I don't know if my stomach muscles will ever be the same. :sad:
