I CANNOT believe that I forgot to post this sooner!
The other day I was pulling a pair of jeans out of my closet and saw a pair hanging that fit before I put all of this weight on. I'm not talking they fit when I weighed 160, but they fit when I was in the 180s for sure.
A little while ago I had tried them on just to see HOW MUCH weight I'd gained (as if the number on the scale wasn't scary enough) and of course, they didn't fit. I could pull them on, but they wouldn't button.
I've been noticing a lately how my clothes fit better. I'm very conscious of my body so I am also very conscious of how my body FEELS in regards to the weight around my belly. These little Non-Scale Victories as we call them (NSV) are the motivation that keeps us going even when the scale isn't moving or isn't our friends.
I decided for the hell of it to put them on and see if they fit any better....
I slid them on.
I ZIPPED THEM UP.
I BUTTONED THEM!
Now, there was definitely some muffin top going on. I won't be wearing them out in public anytime soon, BUT... THEY FIT (ish) AGAIN!
Again, just goes to show that even though I don't see the change in my body per say, I feel it and can physically see it when I can fit into clothes that weren't so flattering 12 lbs ago.
WAAAAAAAAAAAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Now, if I can just fit into the magical khakis I love so much.
That's a ways off, but damn I love those pants!!!!! I guess the jeans will have to suffice in the mean time! :)
