I almost cried in Wal Mart tonight!
I got a 2 tone brown with cream sweater from freecycle and needed a pair of nice brown slacks. Well, I thought that I would look while in Wal Mart and I knew that I had a 8-10 at home of knit pants and that they were to big. Well, I held up a pair of 4-6's and told Bill that they wouldn't work. He looked at me and asked why. I just stared at him and told him that they were to small. He told me he didn't think so and to try them on. Well........
They fit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I almost cried right there in the fitting room. I went and showed them to Bill and he told that they looked nice. I just stood there. I am sure I had a funny look on my face because the girl said they looked nice and didn't I like them? I told her I loved them and it was just they were a small and I never fit in a small anything~ever! Of course I bought them. When they wear out I am thinking of framing them and putting them on the living room wall for posterity!!!!!!!!
Just had to share my great news with my OFF family~the ones that would really understand just how I feel.

Brenda,
That's incredible and I did cry the day I put on a size 12! So I congratulate you on all your hard work.
Hugs, Laureen

My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen
