I was looking for some decorating clothes & I came across a hoard of jeans that you can be pretty sure got stuffed there as I could no longer fit into them.

I was feeling a little down as I've eaten next to nothing for the last 5 days (hubby being away & he normally cooks) and I've gone & put some weight on (the little I have eaten has been sensible, honest) and I've got a pig of a fortnight coming up (entertaining most days) so I'm really worried about everything going wrong.

Anyhow, I started trying the jeans on ..... I don't fit in to all of them, but OVER HALF

Feeling much better now!

It's a great feeling, isn't it!

Great news - Really pleased for you. Keep going.

I have an elderly pair of Levis that I've kept, in hope, for years. They're a snug fit, but give a few weeks, I may be wearing them.

Well done you!

Oh well done you. Over half is brilliant! I found some work trousers the other day which very recently I couldn't even get over my hips! They even do up now (although I probably couldn't sit down in them ha ha!) x

yeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaa!!

That's great. Keep going. Something similar happened to me on a day when I felt sure I'd over indulged a bit. I pulled on a pair of jeans from a drawer and thought the legs were a bit long...then I realised they were a new expensive pair I'd bought a year ago on a discount site which had been far too small. I'd kept them just in case but until 5:2 had given up trying them on. This time I'd just pulled them on by mistake and they weren't even snug. Plus no sign of the dreaded muffin top which had definitely been rising in the last year or so... Such a nice feeling!

Well, if that isn't inspiration, I don't know what it!

That's great! Just shows the scales aren't the only way to track success.

Great news, you've given me hope.

That's brilliant! I'm really psd off now that I've got rid of all the too small clothes (had a big purge when we moved). Now busy getting rid of all the ones that are too big though, and looking forward (hoping hoping) for a shopping fest in the summer.

I had a purge of my wardrobe today and got rid of all my 'enormous' clothes. Plus stuff that god only know why I was hanging on to it. Two black sackfuls. Very Therapeutic!!!!
