The jeans fit!

I bought a pair of size 22 blue jeans about 4 weeks ago. At that point, they did not even zip up, but I was not discouraged. And today, they zipped up. And I wore them!!! OMG, they are 2 sizes smaller than when I started this adventure! It is working and I am so happy. It may be coming off in small umbers, but the inches are coming off. I am learning this time to be more patient.
