This is so funny. Moms!! My mom is the same, but opposite. My family is used to seeing me at a bigger size so when I arrived this summer at my smallest size ever, they were all pleasantly surprised. My mom knew I was a lot smaller, but in her mind I was still a bigger size. She kept wanting to buy me clothes but was still getting them too big. I had to finally tell her, look. I know this sounds crazy, and it's crazy to me too...but I'm mostly a size small now. When I told her I had just tried on a pair of size 6 pants and a size 4 dress that both fit, she looked at me like I was totally fibbing.
She finally believed me when I went to the department store with her and ever size 6 and 4 dress I tried on fit like a glove. So now I'm looking forward to next summer. I'm going to tell her to get shopping before I arrive!
@143tobe My mom started losing weight with me when I hit about the 80 lb mark, and she started asking my advice, guess she finally thought I knew what I was doing.
And I've given her a lot of my hand me downs as I've lost weight, and what's sort of hilarious is that we're sort of opposites, she's bigger on top than me, I'm bigger on bottom (partly to my shape and partly because of the weight training). She's about 4 sizes smaller on the bottoms than me and I'm 1-2 sizes smaller on top than her. So I've given her my old tops and she's given me a lot of her old bottoms so it's worked out really well lol. Although at this point we both are probably pretty close to where we're going to wind up so we have to start buying our own clothes again.
That's funny, and cool, and awesome!!0 -

Exercise: no
Today I continued decluttering and it was first day in a long-long time I didn't obsessed over food. I ate as I pre-planned and didn't watch the clock nor fantasized about next meal. I don't know whether it was because I didn't have anything tempting at home or cause I was busy decluttering, but one of those worked.

@Ver9nika I still look forward to my next meal and I'm always sad when it's over. But it is better now than it used to be, not sure that will ever go away for me.1 -

Comments: It's my second day tracking successfully! I've been trying to get back to it for a while now, but it always takes me a few tries before I'm successful. Being in this group helps because I get to see all you disciplined people! So thanks for the push! It was my third sick day, so for the past 3 days I've only managed to get 3, 20 minute workouts in. Better than nothing but I can't wait till I'm back to full strength again.
NSV: I FINALLY went to bed early last night which enabled me to wake up naturally at 5:30am this morning. I've been struggling to get back to a healthy sleep routine since I returned from my trip back home this summer, so for me this is an epic victory! Hope I can keep it up!1 -

@Rigabann Thanks. Yes, those are my boys. 2 1/2 year old brothers, Ollie and Opie. I love labs. I've had a black, another choco, and a yellow, and now these two blockheads.
@dustyspal I also love labs. Had several over my lifetime, although I currently have 2 cats because when we got them we lived in an apartment and couldn't have dogs, but someday, I will have another lab, I just have a 2 pet limit as I don't want to have more pets than I can really give enough attention to. My pets are my babies.
My first dog was a chocolate lab "Brooklyn" he was terrific! I have a Brittany now 'Rudy'2 -

HAPPY FRIDAY TEAM SLIMSONS! TODAY IS DAY 6! YAY!
MOTIVATIONAL TIP: SLEEP PATTERNS
We have all heard the stories and testimonies on how beneficial sleep us to weight loss. I am a witness myself that when I sleep an average of 7hrs I lose more weight and gain when I only sleep for an average of 4 to 5 hours. Hmmmm🤔🤔🤔 Why is that?
Well according to Google
"The amount of sleep you get directly affects your diet. People who are sleep deprived tend to weigh more and have more trouble losing weight than those who get adequate rest, even when they follow the same diet. When you don't get enough sleep, your body over produces the hunger causing hormones leptin and ghrelin."
