Something Happened on the Way to the In-Laws

I lost a pants size!

I guess when you only wear clothes with S/M/L then you'd never know. Or if you wear Mossimo Supply shirts, a XXXL (considering my tiny back-to-her-original-cute-size BFF wears a XXL and she's about 40 lbs lighter than me and about 8 inches shorter).

Hellloooo Mossimo. NOT the way to make women happy, my friend.

Anyway, I hadn't worn actual jeans until last week and they were both baggy. BAGGY! So, I decided to give my old pair (not my pre-pre-pre pregnancy jeans, but ones that I had worn while NOT pregnant or recovering from pregnancy) that I left at my in-laws.

And they fit.

Just fine. Not even a muffin top.

And just to make sure, I found another pair in the same size at THE GAP and then fit too. (And don't worry, I didn't steal them).

So, there's a little light at the end of the tunnel. It's amazing what fitting into your pants can do for one's soul.

Now if only I could catch some freaking zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzs.

Awesome...congrats on losing a size! See, the trip to the in-laws was worth it, if just to get that pair of jeans.

That is awesome. I pulled out an old pair this weekend and they actually fit too. Still a little snug but I could get into them. I've started having to wear a belt to keep my post-pregnancy pants up so it might be time for a shopping trip in the near future.

Totally true. Fitting into a favorite pair of jeans is better than therapy.

That's so great Kristen! I do hope you get some sleep soon!

I don't think I've been described as 'tiny' since 4th grade!! lmao.

Although, true that with the Mossimo.

Should be size wtf??
