Size matters!!

Today we went out shopping. I didn't get myself anything, but looked around at a lot. My birthday is next weekend, and I was showing my hubby what I want for my birthday :) Well I have been walking around wearing size 16 jeans which are completely falling off of me. I mean it looks ridiculous how big they are on my. Which is great because only a few months ago there was no way I could even think about buttoning them. Anyways today I wore my new size 10 jeans out. My husband said wow there is such a difference when you actually wear the right size clothes for you. I think one reason I was keeping my size 16's was a comfort thing. The other day I took 4 trash bags of my "fat" clothes to goodwill. It felt great to get rid of them. I don't want to sound weird, but it was kind of a liberating experience to drop them off and know that I will never again need them. I still have some of my 16's, but I think I will be taking those to donation next week. I need to completely clear them out of my house. I have noticed that I still look at myself as the girl that could only shop in the plus size section or stores, and a lot of times even those clothes were tight on me. I still have to accept that I can shop in the smaller sizes. I am still focusing what I want to work on instead of what I have already changed. I am working on this. I still look in the mirror and see the overweight girl that has been there for so many years. So I got a big boost today when my hubby told me how good I looked in the right size clothing. I know also it will be very, very soon that I will be able to put on those single digit jeans. Can't wait!! So here are my jeans that I wore today (also my shirt is a medium just a few short months ago I couldn't even dream of wearing a 2x button up shirt)
