Out with the Old In with the New

It has been a recent undertaking of mine to start weeding out the clothes that no longer fit me and to start incorporating clothes that are my size now. My clothes had been getting so bad that when I would raise my arms to tie my hair back my pants would slip off. It was to the point where I would have to constantly be pulling up my pants all the time. Even the jeans I used to have to diet to get into are kind of too loose (although they are my favorite jeans now cause they are just loose enough to be really comfie and look great).

I started out at target like a week or two ago and then met up with Audre last weekend and got some more. It is so nice to go shopping and to be able to shop at stores that aren't specializing in plus sized clothing. And since I have gotten clothes that fit me better I have been getting a lot of compliments from people who are noticing the weight loss more. I guess my old big clothes were kinda hiding my shape a lot.

Checking-In

I am super happy to report that I am in the 220s. I don't think I have been in the 220s since I was in high school--early high school even. I don't know if I really see a change in myself right now but I do feel one and my clothes are all falling off. I am looking forward to getting some clothes that fit sometime soon. I am waiting until after Christmas in hopes that I will have some gift cards. I am pretty proud though. It was such a huge moment to stand on the scale and see that number staring back at me. I know the weight loss has been slower than I had originally planned but that makes it even better in a way. I am just trying to look to the future for more!

Reaching for More

So it has been a long journey so far but this has been the most weight I have ever lost. I feel pretty proud of what I have accomplished at this point and I am totally jazzed to do some more. I feel like the vacation renewed my desire to lose weight and I am ready to set some new goals. I may not have been at 190 my this vacation but I sure felt great and noticed a difference all around.

Feelin' It

My new birthday outfit from The Loft. My Mommy and I went and got it and I was so proud to fit in the clothes there I didn't realize that I would when I went shopping with Audre and she picked out this sweater for me and bam it fit. It felt so great to have it fit and look good and to shop in a store that isn't just a specialty store for big people.

Oh and I have a zit which adds a little color to my pastey face! YEAH!

Recently I have really noticed a change in my body size. At first I wasn't really noticing too much differences but now that I am on the verge of the 220s I really see a huge difference and it makes me proud. I am so happy to feel this good about myself again and I am starting to regret not working on myself sooner but hey as Mimi says "Forget Regret or life is yours to miss". I just wanted to post a little bit of my sunshine so I can remember. Also, I am celebrating the fact that I am sooooo close to the 220s and I haven't been in the 220s since seinor year high school!! I am just so proud of me!! Yeah for my self-centeredness!!!

Some Skinny Pics

I have to admit I have been a little bad recently so I am trying to get myself back on the wagon or at least the majority of the wagon. I just had to post these though because I am so proud of how thin I look. I was taking a pic of myself and I saw that I looked so skinny so I kept taking more just to verify. These are some of the results or the results of the results...yeah whatever. I have one more month to Disney and I got my tickets in the mail today which means I need to get myself more motivated its time for a BOOOT CAAAAAAAMP!!!!
