I have tried on EVERYTHING in my closet. I have a wonderful dilemma....NOTHING FITS! :thumbup:
All my dresses hang funny, my jeans are baggy and my shirts are falling off the shoulders! I have had to buy new underwear and bras to boot. Right now they just have to make due because I am not buying many clothes only to wear them for a few weeks then get more. The thrift shops are good and I have been hitting those up and I have a friend who is size 16 that has given me a lot of things to tide me over. I am taking all the TOO BIG stuff to the consignment shop so I can finance my new wardrobe! :wub:
I have dropped another five pounds for a grand total of 65 pounds in 16 weeks!
I added weights to my exercise routine this week and I am sure my body will sculpt up pretty nicely as long as I keep it up. But who wants to turn back now! By Christmas I could be in UNDERLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:thumbup:
Life is good. I am at my sweet spot and everyday I have people seeing what wonderful results I have accomplished. Yes...I ACCOMPLISHED....don't let anyone tell you this is the easy way out. It is NOT. I do what I am suppose to...eat right and exercise. I just have a tool that assists me in the process. Easy way out my foot!!!!!!!
I have a very supportive sister who I adore. I am almost at her weight and I think it's freaked her out a bit. She's not the jealous type but in about four more pounds I am going to be her weight and I think that makes her a little sad. You see...I was ALWAYS the heaviest sister. I can hear it in her voice but she still is so supportive, loving and kind. It was just sad to hear that little twinge in her voice when I told her I am down to 215.
I feel good...I feel like shouting it from the roofs. There is a little pep to my step and a sway in the hips. This caterpillar is developing her wings and will be breaking out of her cocoon soon!
I am BLESSED ya'll..... BLESSED!!!!!!!!!!!!
