CaptivatingKS Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 For the past 2 months I've been eating as clean as possible and sticking to my workout plan as often as possible (of course, with a few hiccups and wagon falls along the way). Today when I looked in the mirror I could see a difference around my middle, and decided to try on a pair of old size 14 jeans I had in the back of my closet. I haven't been a size 14 for two years now, continually struggling to find 16s that I liked how I looked in. Today I zipped up those 14s with no trouble! They looked awful, by the way, but it was still a huge confidence boost! 4 Quote Make your body the sexiest outfit you own! Link to comment

Silo Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Yay, congratulations! Good work! I, too, have found that many of the clothes from my closet that now technically fit me just don't look good (different body shape, out of style, etc.) 1 Quote 2016 goals: Hit goal weight.

I'm looking forward to getting a pair of trendier jeans! Quote Make your body the sexiest outfit you own! Link to comment
MsFitz Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 That's great! I have an almost empty closet right now. Flinging that stuff felt great though! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk.

Leigh Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 I've got one pair of jeans that I've had for nearly 10 years that I've been saving for the day when I can do that. It's an awesome feeling to be able to zip up a pair of smaller pants, even if they're ugly as all get out 1 Quote Link to comment
