size 14 in red

by Sallyo on 16 Nov 2013, 06:01

Well, I was amazed to see how i looked in a photo last week, all about which I posted on the forum. Gee it made me feel special to get so many compliments from other forumites. You don't get that many people in real life saying how great you look! I think middle aged women are somewhat invisible. And people who see me a lot haven't noticed because my weight loss has been so slow.

However to return to the pants' saga. I have documented here my big moment when I purchased size 15 pants, a few months ago. Now those pants are loose. I can put my fist into the waist band.

I have just made a bold step and bought some pants in size 14. I always used to be size 14. When I learned to sew in my 40s, I used to perfectly fit size 14 patterns. IT's been a long time since I fitted into that size.

These pants are red!!!!!

It's a huge statement of confidence. I don't know if I'll fit into these pants, but I know I will one day and probably this summer. Perhaps this is my Christmas outfit.

I have no doubt whatsoever that you'll fit into those pants Sally, and how fabulous that they are red! :like: Perhaps it takes the wearing of brighter colours for us to be more visible? :smile:
