    Today I had a bit of a laugh. I have a small collection of straight skirts (pencil skirts) which I grew out of. I haven't had a chance to wear them to work until this week, so I selected one which was quite tight the last time I wore it ... and it is too loose!! I'm wearing it today, but it is just barely hanging on my hips. I've overshot an entire collection of clothes ... couldn't wear them before because I was too big ... can barely wear them now because they are too big. :smiley:

    I have overcame my TOM workout paranoia. I usually flat out refuse to do anything during TOM because I have endometriosis and a lot of pain. Yesterday I did 20 min of Yoga and today a 20 min 1 mile walk! First time ever being active during TOM, I'm so proud!!

    I work on the 5th floor of an office building.

    When I was at my heaviest, I did try to walk all the way up a couple times ... but I had to take several breaks, and if anyone had seen me as I neared the top, they would have probably sought medical attention for me.

    However, as I've been losing weight, I climb those stairs every now and then and it has been getting easier.

    Today, the lifts were out of order.

    So, another co-worker and I walked up. I had the additional challenge of a somewhat heavy backpack. Nevertheless ... I made it all the way up, no stopping for breaks, and not even puffing and panting all that hard. :)

    I'm into a skirt I wore in high school ... many, many years ago!! It's a straight/pencil skirt so a classic style, but I really have no idea why I hung onto it all these years. Nevertheless, I tried it on last night ... and it fits! So I wore it to work today. :)

    This is a dumb one. I weighed this morning after what I knew was a great week only to find a .75 loss. I was pissed. Pissed to the point of wanting to go and blow it with a food tantrum that was probably going to involve mozzarella sticks and curse words.

    Then I showered and got dressed to discover Aunt Flo. So I realized what the problem was before I went lashed out at it. Lol-that's my win right now :)

    In a similar vein, I injured myself on Monday night early in my practice session, so I couldn't have my coaching time. I was so angry and frustrated that I almost stopped in at the takeaway on my way home - and then I shouted "NO!" as I was driving and drove home and ate what I planned for dinner. :)

    Yesterday, I found the most adorable trench coat when I went out shopping. If this was ten months ago and I was still a 3X-4X, I would've stared longingly at it and walked away, feeling awful about myself. But I bought it in a size 14, and it looks fabulous. Total victory :)

    YES!!!!!!!!!!! i LOVE having more clothing options as ive gotten smaller!

    and last night when i was in bed, i was rubbing my forehead and noticed i have bones .... around my temple... ive never felt bones there before LOLOLOLOL
