Talking Much to cheer about!

Went camping this weekend. Too many Mic Ultras, two Higher carb meals and the requisite(sp?) few roasted marshmellows. BUT much to cheer about.
1. I did not gain weight!
2. I mistakenly put on my skinny dh's shorts - 32 inch waist loose fit. never thought that would be possible. They were tight but they were on!
3. Went to Old Navy to shop the clearance rack and bought a dress and 2 skirts size 16 figuring that they would be a little tight and I could use them in October or so. I did not try them on there. Well I put them on this morning. They fit great!!!!!!!!!
I am one very happy smaller camper!

Thanks for being here to share my triumphs!

GREAT JOB... (even if ya did have a blunder your doing fine!!!!!)
Sounds like yo uand I are at the same size.. .funny thing is.. my DH wears size 32 pants relaxed fitt also..
when i discoverd i could wear his pants i was in a life of glory.. only thing is.. they look much difrent on me.. lol... he is TINY... and his clothes swim on him.. he weighs 145.. w/ a 32 inch waiste... im 197 w/ a 32 inch waiste..so ya can see where things would look difrently

Keep up the good work and soon you will soon be in pants your DH cant fit in to

Amy! what great news! Losing inches and reaching a smaller size is just the best! As I once told some friends

"I don't want to lose weight (and their eyebrows flew up)

...

I want to lose VOLUME!"


(PS....I love the smilies in your post!)
