    !!!!!!!!

    OMG!!! I am totally freaking out!!!!

    I am sitting here (yes, sitting!) wearing something amazing...

    I have on... SIZE 14 JEANS!!!!

    And they are NOT stretch jeans! Gloria Vanderbilt boot cut size 14 (non-stretch) from 4 years ago... a bit stretched-out from earlier wear, I'm sure, but omg, omg, I am in total shock.

    You see, size 14 is the size I wore in high school and most of college. It is the size that I am most familiar being. It has been my "goal" size many times (and was this time, before I lowered it to 10/12 --didn't want to "settle").

    I am TOTALLY comfortable sitting in them. DH says they look great. I'm sure I'll have to lose another 10 pounds or so before I can attempt this with NEW size 14 jeans, but holy crap, am I ever happy.

    Re: !!!!!!!!

    I just have to add:


    I am TOO heavy in pounds to be wearing these things -- historically speaking... I am about 20 pounds too heavy to wear them, except I CAN this time. I am in total shock that I weigh almost 230 pounds and can wear them.

    The scale is a liar.

        WOOHOO Changing!! That's awesome! I know what you mean about the scale and historical weights in clothing...I'm about 25 lbs heavier than I was when I last wore my HS jeans! Gotta love Atkins.

        Tomorrow I want to go over to my Mom's house...I know there is a closet there with some more of my HS clothes...and I want to go try them on. At the very least, my prom dresses are in my grandmother's sewing room...and I want to go try them on too! LOL

        I love it that you're sitting there in your size 14's, you're rockin girlie!

                            and to make you feel EVEN better... from my experience, GV jeans and other clothing is cut smaller than some name brands ... so you are probably wearing a 12 in my book. Way to go!
                            I know I can do it!
