NSV - New Clothes!
This past weekend, I broke down and bought new pants. I haven't wanted to spend much money on clothes until I know I can keep them for awhile.
In November, I was squeezing into a TIGHT pair of 20W pants. On Saturday, I bought two pairs of 14s. Being able to pick out sizes that weren't the largest... weren't the pants at the VERY BOTTOM OF THE STACK... that was so cool! Haven't been able to do that for years!
Also, guessing my size to be bigger than it was. I tried on 16s and thought "hmm... these are a bit too big!" I haven't had that feeling in a long, long time!

Congratulations! What a great NSV. I also can't wait to get into size 14's...Actually I would just like to get into a pair of pants that are not stretch waist, but have a zipper! :-)

That is SUPER awesome.
I had pretty much the same experience when I went to the mall last week. I grabbed 16s and was surprised that they were so baggy :P So I also was able to get 14s! I tried on 12s out of optimism but, um, yeah.. not there yet.
