I bought myself a pair of what I call "gotta get into" jeans. They are a size 26, and I am not. Yet. Right now I wear a size 30/32. But I am going to use them for motivation. Wish me luck. I figure by the time I drop 50 pounds, I can get into them.

That really IS a great motivator. I've kept almost all of my smaller jeans from when I've lost weight before. I'm in a 26 right now. I've got size 24, 22, 20, and 18 in my closet! lol Right now I can sort of squeeze into my 24's (not pretty....LOL) but I made my first real goal to be getting into my 22's comfortably. I figure thats about 50 or so pounds away. You're gonna make it girl! Keep going. Just keep your eyes on the goal and not on the everyday struggle. (I'm gonna have to start taking my own advice!!)

You know what......LOL. I too have every size I've worn in the last 10yrs packed away in my attic. I think the smallest is a 12. I gave away the 10s, 8s and 5s. I keep in the back of my mind that I want to wear them again one day.

This is a great way to motivate yourself. Make sure to hang it somewhere where you can see it everyday. Just keep going and you'll be able to fit in it soon.
