BabyBlue, where you at? I know you have some motivational loss to post. Let's hear it!!!
And let me hear from everybody: what are you most proud of in your weight-loss journey? Me? I'm happy that even though I haven't been doing what I'm supposed to, I haven't gained back ANY weight. This lets me know that I can maintain my goal weight once I reach it. Your turn!  |
Wow, it has been a long time -- in February I went shopping in regular stores for the first time in years! I bought items in NY&Co, Old Navy, and fell into my first pair of Gap jeans!
The losses are really slowing down since I don't have as much to lose. March was very tough -- I went down 0.8, then gained 0.2, then maintained, then at the end of the month lost three pounds.
Yesterday at a chapter meeting, some sorors were joking today that I was at a Spring '89 weight (I was made in 1991). I didn't have the heart to tell them that I haven't been at my current weight since 1986. I turned 13 that spring, so I didn't know any of them then. That made me very sad -- I often wonder how different my life might have been if I hadn't become so heavy so early in life.
Normally I would weigh in today with WW, but all centers were closed due to the holiday -- I may break my 1985 (seventh grade -- holy chit!) weight tomorrow. Will keep everyone posted.
I have 13.6 lbs to lose to reach a total of 150 pounds lost, and I am thinking about traveling to a new city. Ideas, please!
Ideal08, I will be emailing you pics from my birthday. Hope to hear from you soon!
