  • Size 18!!! YES!!!

    Hey All!
    This morning I went to my friendly neighborhood WalMart and tried on a pair of jean shorts to take on my bike tour! I chose a size 18 thinking that just maybe they would fit as I had bought a pair of other shorts that were 18 and they fit.
    Those size 18 short SLID on!!! There was no pushing myself in them or laying down on the dressing room floor to zip them up!!! I was ecstatic!!!
    I hope there wasn't a camera in the dressing room watching me do my 'victory dance'!
    Anyway, had to share this! I've been walking around in size 22/20's FOREVER! And to be able to go down to an 18 is too great!

    Be well-

        Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
        Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

          To me that was the greatest victory. No nore 20's and you can buy clothes in the regular section.
          WTG!!!!!!!!!! I am so happy for you

                    Thanks so much! I finally made it back from my bike tour! I don't think I lost any weight as I built up a ton of muscle but I lost an inch off my bust and an inch off my backside! I'm loving it!

                    Be well-

                          I'm with you! I have two pairs of size 12 jeans from Victoria's Secret that I've never been able to get in to. I"m so looking forward to sliding in to them in the near future!

                          Thanks for the encouragement!
