Appreciation

This morning I tried to pull on one of my size 22 jeans - since I have been trying to get by with wearing whatever I still have available - but they are pretty much falling off of me. So, I am officially down to only two pairs of pants: the 20W’s (which are loose themselves) and the 18W’s which are still fitting quite well. Yikes! I mentioned the deficiency to my mother and she generously gave me $20 towards a new pair. What a great mom!

My day appears to be fairly low key at this moment, so I am hoping that I will finish catching up on the blog reading. It feels so great to be back in the loop for the most part, and I love hearing about how great everyone seems to be doing. I am so proud of and thankful for this online community!

  2. Isn't it great when we leave a larger size behind us? Kudos to you!

  3. I'm about to drop a size myself and it's such a dilemma to figure out how many new pairs to buy (and then to justify it to myself at all!). I guess it's not the worst problem to have though... :-)

  4. Getting new clothes is my favourite part of this journey! In fact, I'm posting about just that tonight!

  5. Yay for smaller sizes! It is quite a conundrum though being in between and not wanting to spend too much $ when you know it won't last long.

    Glad that you are getting back in the swing of blogging. Thanks for your 266 comment on my 266th post :-) teehee

  7. I recently had a thrift shop score... three pairs of size 16 levis for only $3 a pair. Happy Day!

  8. New clothing sizes rock. My problem is I can't stop buying stuff. It's awful. I recently fit into some 12s and now I am on the 12 buying spree, when I just finished a 14 spree. Must. Stop.

    Well done, it is a GREAT feeling isn't it? ;0)
