This morning I decided that since my scales have been my enemy for the past 4 and 1/2 weeks, that I would instead judge my progress by seeing how close (or far) I was from being able to slip on and button a favorite pair of Ann Taylor pants. It has been YEARS since they have been worn, as they are a size 8, and I have been fluctuating between a 10 and a 12. To be honest, I did not expect them to slide over my hips, but they did. Then I did not expect them to button and zip, but they did. With wiggle room. OK, I must confess, I did a happy dance! Now, do I think all of my old 8's will fit, heavens no. I will chalk today's victory to a very forgiving cut pant. But at the end of the day, the reality remains that the pants that I wore today were in fact, a size 8!!!
