Went shopping today...
and bought lots of stuff to help with my MFP program. First, I got a Polar F6! I was so excited about the possibility of finding out that I was actually burning more calories than I thought.

Telling the TRUTH
Lately I have been seeing a lot of people the haven't seen me in years. I am always being asked how did you do it?! So I tell the truth. A LOT OF HARD WORK.

MFP Gets Thumbs Up!!!
I have only been a member for a month now. When I started, I was tested for my metabolism and it was found to be running low...no surprise, so is the thyroid.

my pants are having a bad day
I bought a pair of 16 slacks two months ago because the 14's were just too snug. They fit pretty good, too good actually:cry: Anyway, I put them on this morning and I noticed I needed a belt.

Shrinkage
I have gained a couple pounds since I started, but I've lost .75cm from my waist and 1cm from my hips. I wish there was a line to add my thigh measurments cause I'm sure those are shrinking and toning up due to my dancing as well. I'll gladly trade muscle for fat!

I just have to say...
When I was at my heaviest 2 months ago, I couldn't even wrap my bath sheet round me, it was around 2-3 inches too small! Today, I had a shower after work, grabbed the same towel, and wrapped it - absent mindedly around my body, and guess what??? IT FITS - with an overlap all the way down !!!! I'm soooooo happy :bigsmile:…
