Ack! Omg Omg Omg!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This afternoon my daughter asked me to take her to the mall. I decided that the paint-splattered cutoffs I was wearing were probably too filthy to wear to the mall, so I went to change clothes. I was going to wear a pair of brown denim capris my daughter got me for mother's day - they are size 16 and are fitting better and better these days.

So I grabbed the brown pants and took off my shorts and started to pull the pants on. They felt snug going up my thighs..........and really snug around the hips.......now, I have gained about 3 lbs of water weight in the last 24 hours, so obviously a little bloated.

I went to fasten them and they were tight. I could zip them up, but I mean, my gut was hanging over the top a bit and they felt ever so slightly uncomfortable. Would only look good with a long tunic top or something.

Man, was I depressed. First of all, all of my other jeans were dirty.

And then I looked down, and they weren't capris.

They were brown denim pants, all right, but they were long.

And then I realized that they were the size 12 jeans I bought last fall when I was at my lowest weight.........

OMG OMG OMG! I can't wear them in public, but I can zip them up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I went from depressed to delirious in about 14 seconds.....lol

That must have been a wonderful feeling. I can hardly wait to have those kinds of feelings. I am so happy that it can actually be done. I have been big for a long time and I look forward to the day I don't have to feel like the fat girl anymore....



Good Job,

Jayme

tha'ts awesome fin!

I kind of had the same experience yesterday. I got out my levi's that I haven't been able to wear in a long time that used to be my 'loose' pants. I could put them on, zip em and everything. They were a bit snug in the behind, but I was still excited!
