I went shopping yesterday to look for a dress for a wedding I have to go to in a couple of weeks.

And I also picked up a couple pairs of jeans to try on.  I didn't know what size I was actually in because I just was wearing really baggy clothes from what I had leftover from my wish bins.

Well I actually purchased two pairs of 20's and also I was able to get into an 18 and zip them up.  Yes I had a little muffin top in them, but I figured hey they will be fitting really nice in a couple weeks.

Oh I also got a great dress and it also was a size 18 and on clearance.  I just love it when I get a bargain. 

I have been really hesitate to purchase new clothes but I did need a couple of things to get started into the new season. 

PS also was able to get a giant (I mean giant black bag of old clothes).  And also was able to get into one leg of my biggest pair of pants today.  I did take a photo will post tommorrow.

Way to go, Jennifer!  That's phenomenal!

It's great to treat yourself to some nice clothes "on the way down" - it's a real pick-me-up to highlight your new body and reinforce the change within yourself.  

Congrats!

That is soooo fun!!!!  Definitely buy the clothes that are a bit snug now becuase soooo soon they will fit amazingly! And as for the muffin top - I LIVE by my Spanx - They are not necessariy name brand - but they hold me in and i feel so much more together when I am wearing it!

AWSOME WOW!!!!
