I'm wearing the size 12's!

So several months back I wrote about buying the size 12 jeans and they fit, but they were a little snug and I didn't feel good in them (self conscious) so I took them off promising I would try them on again soon - I kept thinking about trying them on and kept putting it off - today was the day! I put them on while getting ready for work and they fit and look nice on me! I'm wearing them to work today! I won't be yanking my pants up every time I move!! On Tuesday I went into Fleet Feet and tried on some shorts and they were too loose, I'm thinking no way, I must be between sizes because larges are too loose and mediums are NOT going to fit. I try on the mediums and they fit! I'm so excited I'm shaking! I go out in the shorts and I show Kristy (the manager and my friend) that they fit and they are mediums! I'm so excited - she let me exchange one pair that I just bought for a medium and I have two more pairs on hold waiting until payday to pick up and she ordered me two more pairs so I should be set for the whole summer season!! - The shorts I wore last summer are XL's!!
