A new NSV for me!

[PhotoNut 7]

I have no clothes that fit me anymore! Everything is getting too big, except one pair of size 22 jeans that I just got into. Stupid things, I was wearing 20s in other jeans and couldnt get them on! Anyway! I went shopping for some pants to wear to the gym. I picked out 2 pair exactly alike, one size 18 the other size 14/16. They were cotton, elastic waist with a draw string. I tried on the 18s first and they fit but they were a bit snug. They were 100% cotton and I figured they would draw up, so that wasn't going to work. When I picked up the 14/16s I saw the tag, and it said 18. I had on the 14/16s!!! LOL! I was stunned! How in the world can someone who weighs 246 pounds get a size 14/16 on?! Someone please tell me! *laughs*

So my NSV is, I not only bought the 18s but I also bought a pair of 18 Lee's jeans. I walked into the dressing room with three pair of pants and bought two! Do any of you realize how shocking that is?? *laughs* I do! And that's my NSV for today. Thanks for letting me share! :confused:

Congratulations....you must be thrilled!! :clap2: I can barely remember the size 18 days and the size 14 days were in the ancient times for me. I can picture you with a big smile when you walked out of the dressing room. :biggrin1:

Definitely! And you can be sure that when the dressing room attendant took the pair of 14/16s from me, I made sure she knew I could get them on but I chose to buy the 18s. *laughs*

Hey Susan,

Way to go! Thats great! I can't wait until I see 18's because I still have a whole closet full of them!

Go P'Nut!!! Aren't NSV's fun!! I keep finding new ones every day. I agree with Lisa. You might as well just buy the 14/16 because you'll be there in no time!!! How tall are you? You look pretty tall in your Before/After pictures.
