    my good news

    i had recently bought new shorts size 18, was 24, well yesterday i was at a store and saw more shorts on clearance. well you'd just have to know me, even in the winter i wear shorts. so i decided that before winter was over i should atleast be in a 16 so i bought 2 pair. i come home went to put them up and decided to put them on to see how much more i needed to go before i could wear them. i put them on buttoned and zipped with no problem. they are a little snug but i didn't have to lay on the bed to get them buttoned and zipped. its a miracle. just wanted to share my exciting news.thanks for reading! ~renee~

    My advice to myself: look in the mirror and tell yourself that that "cheat" is what got you here in the first place! You can make it without it!!!

              lol That is wonderful. Me, I dont care if I have to lay back on the bed, or swear not to exhale for the whole day if they go on and button.... close enough.

              Keep up the great work. Here in the south you see a lot people wear shorts and sweatshirts in the winter. As for myself, I am a blue jean girl year around usually.

                  I am happy for you!!! I think that getting into smaller sizes is tons more rewarding than a number on a scale!! Shopping is just going to get more and more fun for you! Congrats!!
