Almost size 16 !!!?

Well I did not loose on Monday stayed the same but am fine with that after my previous weeks loss , and I tried on my size 16 jeans and they fastened altho not the best look, However I managed to get in to my grey trousers 16's and wear them to work ...... ,Result. So I conclude I am a size 17 !! Most of my 18's are rather loose and don't hang right ,thank fully my trusted 2 pairs of jeans are all I have left that look fine so will have to wear 1 wash 1, as I am not buying new yet . I did venture to Matalan on Sunday looking for a pair of black work trousers but the quality was poor and the pair I tried on 18's were baggy but 16 a bit snug.

I was lifting weights at the gym today while loading the weights bar I was thinking if I loose another 6 lbs that will be a total loss of 10kg for me SO... that's my next target realistically by end of October not putting myself under pressure size 16 here I come!!

You'll be in those 16''s before you know it 💙

Well done. It's a good feeling isn't it, sort of makes it all worth the effort when you can actually see the results xx

Hi Dish70,

Great that you've been lifting some weights at the gym today, and hope you enjoyed that.

You'll soon be a size 16 - you're getting ever closer.

Have a lovely weekend.

Lowcal :-)

My favourite jeans ripped today from wear and tear so I'm gutted! I really don't want to buy more yet as I'm hoping that I too will need a 16 soon enough so I'm just finding out old leggings and stuff to get by for now - I don't go out much what with being a SAHM so I can look as much of a mess as I want most days lol

Good luck on reaching a 16! :)

Congratulations losing weight and becoming a smaller dress size. I had to make an emergency shopping trip yesterday for smaller work trousers. My size 18s are too big and they don' t have belt hooks which is how I have been wearing my jeans etc. Size 16 and it feels good. Xx

Snap I too am a 17. Wish uk did 17's as they do abroad. Some of my 16's fit, just depends on where they are from. Others fit lovely but when I sit down I can't breath which is not helpful.

Good luck on your journey and look forward to seeing you hit your target of 16 in October as that too is when I aim for. 🍀🍀

I have clothes in every size from a 'stretchy' 12 to a skimpy 18, my dream is to wear size 12 jeans 😊 Well done dish70 we will get there 😊😊😊
