Down three clothing sizes

I was going to back off on this blog. I wrote three 'catch up' entries yesterday. But I cant resist sharing this news. In the interest of truth in blogging Im going to admit to the world what clothing size I was when I started Jenny Craig.
Today when I was getting dressed, my size 18 pants were baggy! So I broke out my size 16. They had been hanging in my closet for years, a silent witness to my failure to loose weight. They were shoved to the back. But I knew they were there. I guess there was a part of me that was clinging to hope. Even though I flatly stated to my family, NO MORE DIETS' Deep down inside, I knew I would one day tackle this problem again.
When my size 16's gets baggy I will have to buy pants. Before I kept buying BIGGER pants and feeling just sick about it. But pushing those feelings down.
Now I will be buying smaller. Size 1x and 2x are already at the Goodwill.
I went in and showed my husband and he was as thrilled as I am. After I told him I started to cry. I really really never thought this day would come! My husband has supported me every step of the way, even encouraging me to spend $600 a month when I was doing Jenny Direct.
Now that my broken ankle has healed, I can go to the Jenny store. Im still choked up about this.
And I am only half way there!
