I have been rummaging through my closets checking for new options as I continue my weight loss journey.

I had one or two errands to run this morning and rather than heels and the more conservative business style outfit I normally choose, I chose a pair of casual wear pants and sandals.

One of my aunts gave me the jeans about 3 years ago. They are a size 10 with absolutely no stretch, however, now fit loose on me. My aunt explained she paid very little for the jeans (two pairs), however they did not fit. When she gave them to me, I could get them on, however they fit a little too tight.

Now the jeans fit.

The other pair of slacks I found in my closet with the tags (truth, I have lots of things in my closets with tags) are a pair of GAP Travel Pants (cargo style) that I purchased for a great price at the Arundel Mills GAP for $6.97 probably between 2001-2006.

GAP tends to use waist and length to provide size information and the waist on the jeans is 31 inches and the length 32 inches. In today's sizes this is a medium or a 10. These jeans too are loose on me now and do not stretch.

I wanted to be able to wear some of my old size fours by my birthday (July 20), however missed the target. That said, I am not unhappy with my weight loss progress. Think I need a good toning routine. Thinking about something called Wall Pilates.
