So my mom has this neighbor, Donna, that always gives me clothes. She's been doing it for years. Her weight has fluxuated throughout the years, so even when I was heavier, she was able to give me clothes that fit me, but at that time it was mostly tops.
Now, I'm fitting into her pants now too.
Donna is in her late 60's/early 70's, so some of her taste in clothing is a little off from mine, but actually for being older, she doesn't pretty well. But sometimes I have to pick and choose a little.
Sunday I was up at my mom's and Donna came in with a sweater for me, which fit great and I liked. She asked me what size I was in now. Sidebar: Ok, a little history. October 2005 - I was in a 20, now I'm mostly in a 10 or 12, just depends on the clothes. She was like "Wait a sec, I'll be right back". She came back with some jeans and said "Don't look at the size, just try them on." So I did:
THEY WERE SIZE 8!!!!!
I haven't been in an 8 since probably before Junior High, so this is quite thrilling for me. Now, the jeans aren't exactly my taste (They are the jeans with the higher waistband and long zipper), and they are stretch, BUT WHO CARES! I OFFICIALLY FIT IN A PAIR OF PANTS THAT HAD A SINGLE DIGIT SIZE! (And I didn't have to lay on the bed to zip them up!)
They actually fit quite comfortably, but I will probably not wear them if I want to look hot when I go out to the bar. ;)
So thanks Donna for pumping up my ego!!
and...
no more brownies and beer for me!!!!
