Five years ago, before regaining 40 pounds, I found some jeans that I really liked. Of course because I really liked them, the store decided not to carry them any more-- hahaha-- but on the plus side, during their closeout sale I bought several pair for a great price, including 3 pair in a size smaller than I could wear, since I planned to keep losing...... but I did the opposite.

So yesterday I finally took them down off the high shelf in the laundry room where they had been sitting for five years folded with tags still on, and I put a pair on and wore them all day, and they FIT :-)
