I want to thank everyone who weighed in on the jeans post I had a few days back.  I went into Old Navy yesterday and asked the sales person which sytle was roomiest in the thighs.  I have extremely muscular and large legs and I have the greatest problem finding a fit there.  I first started with the size 20s ... too big.  Then the 18s ... still too big.  Could I really fit in a 16?  Yes, I can!  I'm just so excited to be able to shop at a regular store and not have to rely on Lane Bryant all the time!

Also, I'm finding that I am consistently losing body fat (about 1% per week) and increasing muscle mass, but my weight is not changing.  I like having that second measure as I am training for my half marathon and it keeps be sane, knowing that I AM making progress even though my weight is not always showing it.

I also wanted to share a few progress photos (if I can get it to work)

Thanks!

Ask the sales person about the fit.  She was SO right for me.  I tried on the Diva (low waist) and Sweetheart.  I ended up with the sweetheart because the low waist was a bit too low :)

Awesome!  You are doing so well.  I can't wait, you are an inspiration.  I will continue to work hard so I can shop at a regular store.  It really is nice to visually see that it really can happen.

If you fear nothing, then you love nothing. If you love nothing, what joy can there be in life?
