WOW!!! I'm a size 8!!!
on September 17, 2010 7:22 am

I can't believe it I'm a size 8. They lady at the store asked what I was looking for, I said I want some boot cut dark jeans. What size she asked? I reply "I think a 10. I don't think I can get in to a 8." She pulls size 8 for me of three different brands. (we know that each brand runs different.) I'm was thinking to myself there is no way I am a 8. I tried those bad boys on and they fit.  My butt has never looked so good in a pair of jeans. Talk about a high. I bought all three pairs. I haven't had jeans fit this well and feel this good. I have to say they are the most  comfortable jeans I have ever worn. Granted I paid more for them then I usually do. But I really don't think I will get any smaller. How much smaller can I get????? I wore a pair of the jeans on a first date last night. He seemed to like them.  And so did a few other people in the area. What a great WOW moment. What a high!!! The only problem is I can't share this with my daughter or my friends. They don't seem to be as excited as I am about my size anymore. My relationships are strained. This has to be the hardest part of this whole surgery for me. I can honestly say I have never felt so alone. Guess it might be time to make some new friends and move on. It's sad. People come into our life's and leave our life's for a reason.
Anyways I'm a size 8 and excited as heck. My body is banging and I feel great.
