Another small victory :) - Weighty Issues

I decided to try on some old jeans, in a variety of sizes from 18W to 14/16M, and it was fascinating that, due to the cut of the hips and where the waist fell on me, many of the 18's fit worse than the 16's in a better style!

But one pair of 16W gray slacks fit well, without significant muffin top (I wore them daily when I worked at Radioshack, back in 2003), and a pair of jeans I got from a church friend button and zipped too. She had done South Beach and shrunk out of them, then given them to me, but they were WAY too tight to even dream of zipping when I got them. Now, however, they fit and are very nearly appropriate for public consumption.

They are... get this.... a 15/16 MISSES pair of Lee jeans! I haven't been able to wear Lee or Levi's for years and years, and despite a bunch of tight Juniors-cut low riders in higher sizes that looked terrible on my post-baby body, these suckers looks pretty darn good, and in another five pounds or so should fit perfectly.

YAY! They were NOT a plus-sized cut! THEY WERE NORMAL!!!!!

It has just been quite a week for clothing in this house, I think :)
