Every little accomplishment gets me so excited. I don't have much to blog about today except for this one little thing.
So I have been looking around for some new jeans since my pants fell off getting out of the car. But being summer, its been hard! Well, yesterday Sean and I hit up the pool at the YMCA after a little workout. Ummm my bathing suit is getting too big, especially on top. I went under the water and had to hold onto it as I came up LOL! So, I suppose its time to start looking for a new one. Fat person + bathing suit shopping = a nightmare! I actually really like the bathing suit I have so it sucks to be on the lookout for a new one.
So, I had this game stop gift card I wanted to spend so I went over to the mall. By the way, I bought Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum 2010. That should kick my butt here at home a bit. Anyway, I decided to venture over to JC Penneys to check out their bathing suits. Of course, I cant just look at that. I have to look around at everything. I came across these $40 jeans that were on sale for $15. Hmmmm tempting price. I look at the sizes and realize they only go up to 24. Yeah thats big, but im bigger... or so I thought. I started at a size 30 jean! I kind of skipped a bit through the 28s and have found myself in a 26. For $15 though, maybe I can garb the 24s and be in them in a couple weeks.
So, I picked them up and headed to the fitting room. I sware it was lik ewalking to my death or something. Knowing that I am going to go in there and be disappointed, even though I picked them up off the rack knowing they were a size smaller than I was wearing. So, I put one leg in... ok... next leg... ok... over my big bugg.. wow ok they go up. Button... zip... They are on! Holy crap! Did I seriously just fit into a 24? I totally did. So I march my happy self to the check out counter and buy myself a new pair of jeans! I am tempted to go back and get a 22 just to have hanging around for when the time comes. But, its so much more fun to go shopping and have that element of surprise when the next size fits. So yay for my little accomplishment for the day!

Omg, I so know what you mean about dreading shopping for new clothes. The hope followed by the disappointment are sometimes too much! But how absolutely amazing it feels to have to go back for a SMALLER size! Woo Hooo!
