Nothing real big, but I just had to share!
I just tried on a pair of jeans that a couple months ago I could not get past the tops of my thighs, and not only did they go all the way up, I got them fastened! They are still a little too small to wear because I can't really sit down or walk up the stairs in them well :laugh: but I think I will be able to wear them in a…

I didnt even realize it.
I went otu hunting and hiked to the very spot that I decided to change my life on. I looked at my dad and said I have never been here. He said yes you have. I said I was.

Best shopping experience in ages
Last week I went on a trip with my family and realized that I had brought my dress clothes but no normal tops. So I went to go buy myself some shirts.

It's not much, but . . .
I've only lost around 8 pounds (I'm hoping I've lost 2 more over this past week, but I don't weigh till Monday), but I put on an Alumni shirt today I bought two or three years ago at college and, for the first time, it wasn't tight! :smile:

Cleaning house...
So, I have been holding onto all my fat clothes. I just threw them all away (technically donated), wow! I have so much space in all my drawers and closet, this feels great! Those clothes (three trash bags full) were ugly and never fit correctly anyway. It wasn't the clothes, it was me. I never felt good in clothes until…

amazing low cal lunch
I just found a great trick for an awesome lunch. I buy a pound of the healthiest deli turkey and have it package in 4 quarters. When I want a sandwich I just cut straight across the mid point of one of the quarters and have my recommended 2 ounces. I use the 100 calorie Arnold multi-grain thin bread, and use 2 tablespoons…

Woo!
So I think (I hope) I have finally broken this plateau, I've dropped two pounds in the past three days. Whether it's because I upped my calories from 1200 to 1400, or because I have been trying to do the reverse diet thing and eating most of my calories earlier in the day, I don't know, but I'm so happy, as it means I'm…

A slight positive to the bad economy...
Since money has been really tight lately, I have been eating like a mouse. When I make dinner, I make sure there is always enough for my kids and husband to eat later. So if that means I only get a little bit so be it. Of course my biggest concern is that my kids have food and my husband works really hard and he deserves a…

Hello fellow myfitnesspalers. I just had to share the good news. Today I stepped on the scale and it said 133! I started out this journey a couple months ago at 139...
