diet this week has been a bit screwy. as i stated in my last post this week i did a lot of little cheats here and there which prevented me from seeing a big number loss. either way when i stepped on my own scale today it appears as though i may be at the 57 lbs (which means i only have 30 left). we will see if the numbers at the center match on monday but even if they don't that is ok.
today i did decided i needed to look at new shirts since i don't have a whole lot. i realized this after doing a purge of clothes that don't fit me anymore last weekend. i have a stack that comes up to my hip that don't fit! this is great to see but then when i look at my closet and see that it is rather bare... there is a bit of sadness. i really did like some of the stuff that doesn't fit anymore. oh well out with the old in with the new.
while at the store looking at shirts (which i found 2) i decided for fun i would try on a pair of jeans. i was shopping at my new favorite store, gordmans, because they have cheap prices and when i am burning through clothes every couple of months i don't want to spend a lot on them. this is where i bought my size 14 jeans. today i tried on a pair of size 12. i did not purchase them because they did not flatter my body yet. the excitement i got from this was in the fact that not only was i able to pull them up (something i would not have been able to do 2 or 3 months ago), i was able to button them even. unfortunately, after buttoning them i still had a bit excess body that was being pushed up and over. so not there yet... but we are getting there right?!?!
hope you have a great weekend! happy eating!

Hey, you are 2/3's of the way to your goal!!!! I think that is fantastic. (Wouldn't the world be a lot better if it would be as easy to LOSE weight as it was to GAIN it???) The size 12 jeans are fantastic...I mean, so what if they are tight and most of your lower body is now hanging out your middle? The reality is, before you would have had to buy two size 12 jeans--one for each leg...(Think how much money you are saving right there alone...) It won't be long before the size 12 actually fits comfortably!!!
I remember a time you wouldn't try any clothes on because of how you MIGHT look in them. Way to go and keep up the good work.
