So the other day I decided to go shopping for some new jeans. All of my size 18 clothes are starting to look really sloppy on me and I felt inspired to try my hand at size 16. I was happy to learn that the Gap stocks size 16 and headed on down. WELL....6 pairs of pants later I finally found a pair that kind of fit and that was really stretching it (pardon the pun). So I left discouraged and accepted the fact that I had over-estimated my progress. Anyway, I went shopping today and was able to fit quite easily into size 16 clothes of 3 different brands. GO Me! I think I'm going to send the Gap my psychiatrist bills for my low self-esteem issues!
