I wanted to go and walk into a normal store and by some jeans..

I wanted to start wearing my boots and jeans more now that I am skinner. I don't know if you have ever bought Wrangelrs, 20x's, Rocky Mtn's Or Cruel Girls.. but they are made THIN.. not much room in the hips.. (right Abbie..lol)

Well we went to Cavender's last night.. and I went to the shelf and I tried on a size 15.. And Dh said.. Oh no those are to big????

I was like what?

So, I went and grabbed a 14?? Dh said Oh no those are to big??

I was like what?

I went and grabbed a 12 and they FIT...

They fit fit fit fit fit
I had on a size 12 pants.. I haven't seen a size 12 in years..lolololol

I wanted to take a pic of the size on the legs..

But, I didnt buy any after all... all they had was low rise. Low Rise isn't for my body. I wanted a normal average rise.. and they didn't have them..

So, I am still searching for the perfect jeans..lolol

That is awesome Mel... you are doing great! You are my inspiration! I always thought you looked great, but I know how good it feels to go down another size (or few sizes).

I don't like the low rise jeans on myself either. Even though I have lost some weight, I still need to tone up my mid section. I don't know if I could get used to lose rise jeans even if I had my old body back.

WTG MEL!!!!!!

I am very proud of you!

MyBlueEyedBabies replied: Awesome. I am dreaming about being a 12 again

I hate low rise too, I have been getting mid rise- it sits just below the waist

Maddie&EthansMom replied: MEL!!!! What fantastic NEWS!!!! I'm just smiling from ear to ear!!! I'm so proud of you!!

I don't like low rise, either. I have such a difficult time finding the right pants.

A&A'smommy replied: OMG WTG that is SOOO awesome girl!!!!!

Our Lil' Family replied: Yay!!!!!! WTG! That's such a great feeling isn't it?

I need to go jeans shopping too but I'm afraid of the size I'll need! Guess I need to spend more time on the eliptical machine.....(almost said exersaucer - mommy brain! )
