Willi333 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 After being all by myself this week, I thought I do a little shopping I always wear long (ankle long) skirts to hide my big ol' knees & legs. So I never really paid any attention to pants or even jeans. Well after strolling through the store, my eyes catched a jeans and I thought "yeah, yeah, like that looks good on you" but somehow I could not resist and had to try them on No clue what size I would need, I took the 20, 18 and 16 and of course started with the 20 --> too big YAY! then I tried on the 18 --> was o.k. but already to big around the waist YAYYY !! I ended up buying the 16 which is a bit tight around the thighs but overall fits and I thought a few more weeks and it'll be just right. Since not wearing a J-E-A-N-S in almost 15 YEARS, I feel great about it and thought I share my little secret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigali Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 That is awesome. I went through my closet yesterday because my size 20 pants were falling off. I got into my jeans that I have not worn in over 5 years. That felt great so I can relate to what you are saying. Congratulations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alana Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Aw, that is so wonderful! I had a jeans epiphany recently myself, so I know how much fun it can be. I found a top that I bought at Christmas, but couldn't wear and now it fits! Before the buttons wouldn't stay closed and now they do. Yay for new clothes!
