Little victories.
I can fit my 'curvy' size 10 pants. (Basically, it's a size 12-ish with a smaller number on the tag. Strokes my ego juuuuuuuust fine.) I can zip up the size actual-10 pants, but I'm afraid I'll either bust a seam or a ligament trying to do anything other than stand veeeeeery straight in them.
But I'm getting there. Slowly. My size 14s are finally too-damn-big, but the size 12s are still snug in the wrong spots. Damn drumstick thighs.
If I keep up my stealth-guru phase that I have this week (seeeeekrit lunges in the hall when no one's looking, using the elevator rails for push-ups, yoga stretches while waiting for the copier) and continue to avoid large meals entirely (I know, I know, starvation = bad, but so does a binge that lasts a week), I just may fit a real size 10 by next weekend. Because however much back this baby has, well... it looks better when it isn't jiggling like a midwestern granny's ambrosia.
