Finally!!!!!!!

As many of you know I have been trying to get into this pair of size 24 jeans that I had from 8 years ago ever since I have had my surgery. I was in a tight 28 presurgery and have lost 65 lbs so common sense would be that these would/should fit. Nope. No deal. Couldn't button to save me! Well, I finally got the nerve up to go to Avenue today and try on pants. I have my youngest, Liv age 3, with me. I take a size 24 and 26 in with me. Try on the 24's first for Haha's. They are much too big! I get redressed and go out and get a 22. Again go in the dressing room. Undress and try them on. They fit with quite a bit of room to spare. Gasp....could it be? Could I actually be a size 20?????? Shaking, I get dressed again. Go out and procure a size 20 petite (not easy...took about 20 mins grrrrr....) finally found them. Go back to said dressing room and tried on the the 20's. THEY FIT!!!!! I was crying in the dressing room. Thank goodness there wasn't anyone around or they would have thought I was nuts. I am so estatic I can't even put it into words how happy I am! I had no intenions of making a purchase today but I just had to when I found this out! Doing the happy dance in West Hartford tonight, Eileen

Good for you Eileen. Keep up the good work. Enjoy the moment....it'll be one of many. Take care, Kelly

Wow!!!! That is wonderful Eileen! What a huge accomplishment! Congratulations! Carmen

Hey Eileen You did it!!! Because you excercise more often and it paid off for smaller size!!! I am so proud of you!!!!! Hope to see you on Tomorrow night with new pant SMILE! Hugs Kathy K

Thanks Kathy While the exercise has definately helped, I think I must have really shrunk that pair of jeans that won't fit because they still don't fit! Eileen

Hi Eileen, I gasped when I read your message! I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am for you and how proud of you I am. You are doing wonderful and it will just keep getting better and better. Congratulations! Sandy

Congrats, Eileen! You've worked hard, I'm glad your enjoying the fruits of your labors!! If you need a shopping partner, just let me know!! Peace, -Deb

I would love to go shopping with you deb! let's wait until I can go to a "regular" size store and then you can show me around to the best stores. It's been well over a decade since I shopped in a regular store!

Eileen I am so proud of you! I was thinking when you posted last week..that the last time I saw you..you looked smaller than a size 22..and that was a while ago! Congratulations. I share your joy..you have done a great job!! Love Joanie

That is great Eileen I am so happy for you and doing the happy dance for you here in Norwich. Keep up the great work. Pat yourself on the back, that's awesome success. Maggie
