Default I wore some of my old jeans today

I never got rid of my "skinny" clothes. For some reason I always thought I might get into them again...I don't know why. But I just kept letting them take up space in my clothes. Well, today I put on an old pair of jeans...size 14 and they fit! I was so excited. I wanna go out and buy a couple of pairs of jeans so I can march around the house (or outside) in pants! I am getting tired of only having 1 pair of pants!!!

But I never thought these pants would see the light of day again!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Woo-hoo!! Awesome....can't wait till I buy skinny jeans. All my clothes are 3x, but since I've been on a diet, they're so big I look silly in them. Way to go. Put up an after pic so we can see you in your skinny jeans.

yay!! congrats!!! My mom told me my pants were too big today - yes I know this... then she said 'you know, you do what drives your aunt crazy, you wear loose clothes thinking it'll 'hide' your weight, but it doesn't work'... I said, no, I don't do that - I bought this size because the size down was too small and these FIT when I bought them. I do not TRY to hide my weight by wearing loose clothes, BUT nor do I wear clothes that are too tight....

my mom is not being particularly supportive right now.

I had saved my skinny clothes for years in my attic. I would occassionally go up there and look at some of them and would actually grieve over how I used to look and feel. Eventually I gave all of my skinny clothes to a clothing drive. It was a good thing, though. while at the clothing give a way, a man was able to take home all 7 pair of brand new mens Levi jeans (I love men's Levi jeans on me when I am thin). He needed the jeans more than my atttic did. So, now I will be looking forward to buying new ones.
Congrats on your weight loss. such wonderful news.
And... Perfesser...you are a hoot!

I think the last time I saw that size in my closet was in high school - 25+ years ago!!

I don't know that I'll ever get down to that size, but I'll be happy to get out of the 20's... right now, I'm anywhere from a 28 to a 32 depending upon the pants!
