Just wanted to share something with you all... a wow moment for me.. So for the fun of it I thought since I've been "stuck" at the same weight for a couple weeks, that I'd try on my old jeans to see & feel how far I've come. I put them on and am amazed. I hope everyone saved a "fat" outfit of somekind to do this with. Seeing the number on the scale or even hearing the inches you've lost is great... but there is something about putting on these jeans that made me really feel WOW OMG. The jeans were tight, and they are stretchy... I was in denial when I wore them and thought they looked good... And I NEVER for one minute thought I'd be one of those people that could fit both legs in one pant leg... see for yourself...

Those are amazing pics, Terri! (Also, I love your new avie!) I was in a huge hurry to get rid of all my size 32 clothes. Maybe I should have kept one pair of my jeans. I have been in a bit of a stall myself-the scale finally moved this morning. Sometimes it takes those non-scale victories to keep us from getting discouraged. I have the turtle on my ticker to remind myself that this is a marathon journey, not a sprint! I'm not the most patient person around, so I need lots of reminders! Again, congrats!
