Spring cleaning

I had to add a little something positive along with my last post. Today marks the 2 month mark since my surgery.  I can't believe I have made it this far.  I have really been noticing how a lot of my clothing, especially my jeans have been starting to get too big to wear. can we say yay? So I decided I needed to go through my closet and get rid of stuff I can no longer wear. 

I have had this crazy obsession with saving jeans.  Even when I have gotten too big for them over the years I would hide them away in my closet because I always said, "If I ever lose weight, I don't want to have to buy more jeans."  I have always been made fun of by my mom and sister and certain friends because they just take up so much space.  Well who is laughing now?

I broke in to all my jeans and discovered that (minus the 5 pairs I threw aways because they had irreparable damage to them) I have 35 pairs of jeans in my closet. 6 different sizes.  The best part about it....I am getting rid of 2 sizes because they are too big.  That's right, I have dropped 2 pant sizes! WOOHOO!

The other great thing about this is, my sister is 2 sizes smaller than me to begin with, and also shrinking, so she is giving me all her jeans that she cant wear anymore, and I am giving her the stack of jeans that I have in her size.  Jeans are so expensive anyway and they last forever, so it is nice to not have to go buy new ones every time we drop a size. I had to take a picture because it was just so comical.

It was very liberating to get rid of so many items that were no longer a part of me.  I got rid of old jeans, scrubs, even bras. Yup, my boobs are shrinking haha. I know I have a setback to deal with, but I am feeling pretty good about where I am right now.
