Size 14!

  • Popular Post

I just woke up in the middle of the night and ran downstairs for a Water. As I was walking back up, I noticed I felt pretty good so I walked straight to my closet to try clothes on. (Because that's what people do at 3:30am right? )

I went right to the forbidden pile. .. clothes I haven't worn in years. (Why I've let them take up space in my closet is beyond me.. but tonight no complaints! )

I tried on the first pair of size 14 capris and they fit! I was excited but knew they were probably one of the bigger size 14s. Then I tried on the next pair and the next, and EVERY size 14 in my closet fit. Woo hoo!

Then of course my "crazy brain" took over and I tried on a size 12. Had to laugh.. That was a definite no go (for now! ) But I don't care. I'm sitting here at 4 in the morning happy as could be. I'm not sure anyone else in my life would appreciate a 4am "YEA! My butt is smaller" phone call so I came here instead! :) I don't think I'll ever get back to sleep.

You really need to update your stats for us hun!

Congrats on the loss and the 3:30 am. I get that! Been there done that too..

Exciting eh!!!! Congrats! :)

Great NSV, and congrats to the smaller you!

Congratulations! Feels so good, doesn't it? I find that when the scale isn't moving the way I think it should (you know, light speed), that's often when I drop a size. Way to go! Here's to a wonderful summer ahead.

Wow, I feel your excitement! Put a big smile on my face and I dont blame you for wanting to shout from the roof tops! Go girl!

It's true, only those who have been there and done that not only get it but feel your joy for you all over again! Happy dance! Wooot whooot!

Wow! What an exciting feeling. Congratulations. Your stats still haven't been updated. Just wondering how much weight you have lost so far on your journey.

Awesome :) great feeling right !!!

Awesome job! I am almost there myself. Keep up the good work!

Way to go!

Is' nt that just the coolest feeling in the world when you try on pants and they finally slide comfortably over your tush ? Gets me every time !!!

Thanks for all the kind words. It really means a lot to me. Updated stats but think I forgot to hit "save changes". Should be correct now. Had to go in for an unfill last week (after the fill 6 days previous)

???? - . 5cc I hate to admit it but that was a hard decision to make. How goofy is that? I was more excited about the 5 pounds I lost in 6 days than how bad I felt. If there's anyone out there over filled but caught up in the romance of the quick weight loss, find me. I'm going to try to talk you into feeling better. I do.. And I've even lost weight since the unfill. HEALTHY lost weight. Thanks again for all your support guys!

Oops.. My sad face emoticon came out as crazy symbols. What I meant to type is that my unfill was -. 5cc (from 5 to 4.5).
