I Can't Believe They Fit
So, I put on a pair of jeans that I have in size 5 and they felt a bit loose so I decided to hit the thrift store and pick up the next size down, size 3, which is my ultimate goal size. I am at 125lbs, which is the top of the 5lb range I want to try to maintain at so I figured I may be at that size now.
I picked out a pair of 3s and a 4P and then I went to look at Levi's. I love Levi's 501s. I have been wearing them forever. One of my biggest victories was getting into the size 36s that I had from before I started regaining a lot of weight.
I wore the 36s for a while and when they got loose I went and bought some 34s. I wore those for a while and then it was time for 32s, which I have been wearing for a few months. I decided to get a pair of 30s. I can't even remember I last time I wore that size. I figured I may have a while to get into them but it was something to look forward to.
I got home and tried on the size 3. I couldn't get them past my legs :) They really looked like children's pants. I will give them to my daughter, who should be able to wear them. I put on the 4Ps and they fit perfectly. Then I put on the Levi's. They went on easily and even buttoned up without me having to lie down.
I don't plan on buying any more Levi's, at least until these wear out. What a concept. I don't know if I have ever had any small size clothes wear out. One of the reasons I like buying things at thrift stores is because they look worn, like I have had them for years instead of just now fitting into them. I can't wait to wear out my first pair of jeans.
