I went to Avenue with Gillian at lunch today and bought a new pair of pants. The same pair I'm wearing today, but two sizes smaller.
Two sizes.
You read that correctly. I bought the first pair in a size 22 this past December. They were roomy then, but now they're just falling off. Even my retro stretch belts won't keep them up anymore. I got fed up and decided to get them one size smaller. Except they didn't have any 20 Talls in stock today. On a whim I tried an 18. They're like totally different pants! They actually fit and make my butt look like a booty instead of a blob inside an ill-fitting sack. Score!
This is what losing 20 pounds feels like.

Congrats! Hearing that makes me want to join a gym to share in your joy. Actually, since getting my wisdom teeth pulled and going off depo, I've lost at least 10 pounds, too! Yay for us!

You go girl! Awesome! Kickass! I think I'm almost out of a solid 22, with a few exceptions. I'm in and out of the 20's. Although I recently bought a pair of pants that said 18, but I really think it was a fluke, those pants ran HUGE in general. I haven't been losing weight lately but I think I'm losing some fat and gaining muscle so I seem to be losing an inch here and there. ;)
