Default Dropped a size

First milestone. I know it's real too because I had an old pair that were very comfortable, so, when they got too tight, I bought the same jeans in the next size up.

Well I've been wearing the next size up with a belt for a week now, so this weekend I dug my old pair out of the bottom of the hamper (yes, they'd been there for months...I'm a student, don't judge me!) and washed them. Then this morning I slipped into them.

Never thought I'd be so glad to be wearing a ratty pair of jeans with bleach stains! Now here's to hoping I drop another size before the inner thighs wear out (seeing as they're already half-way there )

Woo-hoo!!

Congrats, going to the next size down is always a great feeling. And don't worry about the inner thighs wearing out thing, happens to a lot of us.
