Well, I have finally done it! Thursday, November 8th is history for me!
I went shopping on Tuesday because it has cooled off and all of Gunner's long sleeve t-shirts were way, way too small. That child has grown a ton since late spring! The sleeves were about 2 inches too short on his arms and his belly button was almost showing (size 4's and 4T's).
Anyway, I picked out a few shirts on sale for him and decided to go to the misses dept. to look at jeans. I know I had lost weight because all my jeans were just too big. (That feels so great to say!) I didn't have time to try on, so I picked one pair, size 10. Size 10. I honestly can't remember the last pair of jeans I bought that were a size 10. I've been putting off trying them on until this morning. YES! They fit. It wasn't a squeeze. They FIT! Wow. Size 10. I think I might enjoy shopping again. Maybe I should start working out again. Then I could really feel good about myself!! I just had to brag to cyber world!!!!!!!!
By the way, all the shirts I bought for Gunner fit him and he loved them. He is 4 1/2 (Nov 17) and wears a boys 5/6 in shirts and size 5 in pants when I can find them to fit his waist. The adjustable waistbands are nice if you don't have to scrunch them way up. I always have about 6 to 8 holes pulled out on each side and they look terrible. Why don't they make kids clothes to fit????? He is a head taller than the other boys in his preschool class. I wonder if he will always be tall?

Congrats on being a size 10! That has to be a wonderful feeling. Isn't that totally the way it is... if we start doing well then it is so much easier to be motivated to exercise.
Great job too on picking the perfect clothes for Gunner.
Can I come shopping with you? I would love to find some new pants that fit. I can't believe you just picked out a pair and they fit!
Kids clothes . . . always a saga!
Loree - it's a brand thing. The St John's Bay ones at JCPenney fit me best, so I just bought the next smaller size and voila. It's not always THAT easy!!!!! I usually have to try on 10 pairs to find ones I like. I just got lucky this time.
YEAH! I'm so jealous, but happy for you! What a great feeling!
I'm tagging you. Check out my blog for details (toward end of the long post).
Maybe this'll get you to post again! :)
