When I’m glancing down at my arm while wearing a sleeveless shirt it’s not just a blob. There is the shoulder, slight indentation, slight bulge, slight indentation and then elbow. This is just sitting normally, like right now when I’m typing this on my phone. I find it kind of exciting 😃20

I have more slack in my seatbelt and I had the first person to not see me in a while to tell me I was looking slimmer!19

I bought 2 pairs of size 4–size 4 jeans and a size 2–size 2 skirt!!! I bought a lot more small shirts and some more skirts but holy cow, I have never been a size 2 or 4! Here are the clothes I bought.
I’m trying to accept the fact that I will have to relose some weight because of all the extra eating—man it’s been too much but how can you say no to your special needs nephew who keeps making you special food. But it’s only 1 more day and then back on the bandwagon. It’s such a head game.
That wardrobe looks right up my alley! Pretty!! I would love to do a capsule wardrobe at some point... had it close, then weight went up, and now I am down. Once I settle into a size I am excited to do some shopping!10 -
I noticed my clothes are fitting a lot better!14

After a 60 minute workout on the Gazelle, I took my puppers on a walk on the beach, which turned into a 3 mile run.15

I went to the beach today instead of going for my morning walk, and ended up going for a walk anyway because I wanted to explore the village near the beach. It was very nice!20

I plan to reward myself by buying fabric and making myself some historically-inspired dresses. There's some yummy summer dress potential in an 18th century robe anglais, and I love the '50s silhouette, and I'm pretty sure I'll have pinup curves when I'm done.12 -

I have similar plans!! I plan to buy quality neutral colored linen (and maybe a rich plum color as well) and make a few high waisted skirts reminiscent of the Victorian era walking skirt. I’ve seen a few modern takes that are just lovely, the pleating in the waistbands are gorgeous!8 -
It's a little one but I went for a walk with my son and Mum last night and didn't get winded or struggle with back pain - it's only been a little over a month since I started all this and this was really exciting.22

Started my journey July 4th. I've officially lost 1 inch/ 2.54cm from my hips. My weight has been fluctuating like a normal human body but this last week it's steadily coming down ounce by ounce 😁 My hips are my number 1 problem area so an inch off is good news.😆 Now onto the next inch. My goal is only to lose additional 3.5-4 inches and I'm happy.
I also noticed I don't even need to walk as much as I did last time to lose weight. I was walking 14,000-15,000 steps daily plus counting calories when I lost weight 2 years ago. It was more of a brisk walk and nothing intense. Most of the walking was done while at work and during lunch break. This is time around working from home I've been jogging in place in my living room for 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes in the evening while watching tv or playing games on my phone. On average I'm walking 10500-11,000 steps a day and I'm eating between 1300-1500 calories a day. I'm also short 5'2"/157cm. So moral of the story and a lesson I just learned, the quality of your steps is just as important, as long as you are in a continuous caloric deficit you'll lose weight and you don't need to do anything crazy. 😊11 -

I get my linen from Fabrics-store.com, have used their linen for reenacting dresses for the last twenty years and been very happy with the quality and the durability. I'll definitely be getting linen from them for some of the medieval-ish dresses I want to make. The stretch of either linen or wool on the bias is part of the fit of that dress.
Most recent NSV: Walked upstairs at a good clip to get back to changing the sheets. Boyfriend said, when I was at the top of the stairs, "Hey, where's the top to my thermos?" I went back downstairs at a good clip, into the kitchen, found the top, gave it to him, and went upstairs again at a good clip... and I wasn't winded and my heart wasn't pounding. THAT's new.

Went out for a bike ride today and managed to get up a hill without stopping. The last time I rode it I stopped 2/3's of the way up for a breather. I guess having to lug twenty less pounds up made a difference17

Congratulations! I'm enjoying moments like these on my rides, as well!8 -
Ha ha, it's a hot day and I went grocery shopping - then pulled weeds - then still had energy to clean the bathroom - then decided it sounded fun to skate around the kitchen floor on two wet towels because it was more fun than breaking out the mop. This time last year I would have gone grocery shopping and been really tired from it.23

Did four chin-ups a couple of nights ago. That coincides with a loss of 2.5 pounds last week.22

I can finally do a few proper push ups!
Also fitting comfortably in some old trousers that have been in the loft for the last 3 years!!!! I tried them on in April and couldn't even fasten them up!21 -
We were helping our daughter move house yesterday i was grabbing boxes from the removal.van and carrying them into the house and one of the removal men kept trying to take boxes from me. Before they left he was talking to my husband and said to him, your wife is a very strong woman. Made my day24

During a visit to the GP this week, she commented that I may feel lightheaded if I get up too quickly as that often happens to someone like me who’s thin - I didn’t hear too much after that, as I kept hearing her words echoing in my ears that I was thin 😊29
