I told Shawna maybe she should just keep the red 16's, if she's comfy in them, but then I realised... at least 5 lbs of her gain this season HAS to be water gain, and she'll lose that in the first week or two of January... by the end of January, she'll definitely be back down those 10 she gained in the last month. So the 14's should fit snugly as they're supposed to, rather than kinda tight the way they do now.

Plug for Old Navy here... I own 4 pairs of these corduroys (ok, one of them had the crotch split out when I lifted something about 100 pounds :P LOL) and they are SO COMFORTABLE. Also, ON goes up to size 20 we saw today... so if you like cords, go check them out! Just make sure to try them on in the store... ON's sizings are weird and each pair of pants could fit somewhat differently. (They also have jeans in the same style as these cords, I also have a pair of those.)

I could ask, but I know Shawna won't let me take a picture of her backside to post on her website for you guys, so you'll just have to imagine *mmmm* Nope, I'm not afraid of showing the world that I find the female body very attractive - no matter what shape or size or age is it (: Err, age over 18 that is :P

Anyway, Shawna's right. Keep up the hard work, it's definitely worth it. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I've been watching Shawna's journey very closely and it's just been amazing for me to see. I've also seen her really "blow it" this week while I've been here, but she's *enjoying* blowing it, instead of beating herself up over it. Size 14 has been her goal for a very long time because that's the size she was when she got married (remember her wedding dress story?) and now she's there!!!!

Whatever your goal is, you can reach it (:

Happy Holiday's.

Way to Go Shawna!!! That is just fantastic!

I am going to have to go and get myself some new clothes soon since everything I have now is hanging on me and way too baggy.

GREAT! That's such an exciting feeling! I got a new wardrobe for Christmas from DH's family and alot of it was too big, even thought it would have fit a few months ago. If any of it had said 14 I'd have flipped!

Congrats again.

weird, I find old navy sizes to be big. At my highest weight I was wearing single digit sizes from ON which always made me laugh.

Congrats Shawna!! I have been trying on my 18s forever it seems and I can get them up over my butt now but not zipped...not even close to zipped!! rofl. So way to go!

As for ON sizes...I've never worn their pants but I would imagine it's all the shape of your body...Rely, didn't you say you are pear shaped??? Zorbs are you apple shaped?? So maybe that's why they seem to run small to one person and large to another?? I dunno...just a thought!

But again...you're doing awesome Shawna! Keep it up and thanks for the encouragment!
