Fat jeans still tight!

[lenshanem]

Wow, I could really use a boost. Anyone have any thoughts as to why my jeans are still tight but yet I've lost 7 pounds? It just makes no sense. You lose 7 pounds you'd think your jeans would feel at least a tad looser.

I've been so frustrated these last few days!

I don't know why, but sometimes body weight and clothing sizes just don't cooperate together very well. I had to lose 20 pounds before I started seeing a real difference in my clothes.

Don't let frustration set in on you! You are doing great! 7 pounds is wonderful. More than likely you are just having a visit from the Bloat Fairy. The BF does seem to visit at the most inconvenient times, but doesn't usually stay for too long. I'm sure you will be pulling those jeans up to keep them from falling off, soon!

Thanks for the words of encouragement.

don't get discouraged
i have lost 17 lbs since i started and have gotten out of my "fat " pants but all the other still fit
looser yes but i can't get into the next size yet

it will happen so we just have to keep with it

Congratulations on the 7 lbs
that is a great start

Don't focus on the pants still being tight - Focus on WOW I LOST 7 LBS!!! - GREAT JOB!!!

chin up! you have LOST 7 pounds of fat! woo hoo!!!

i lost ten before I felt a difference worth noting in my jeans/clothes

and -- where are you losing? i always lose first in places I could care less about, my wrist/ankles for one. Look at your face, does it appear a tad slimmer -- how about your arms?

just think - you are 7 lbs closer to looser jeans! it will happen!
