    You look great! Don't worry about the dirty mirror - it is a sign every one is brushing their teeth!!

    Thank you So much! 55 pounds to go, but this was a great small victory for me.

    Wearing a pencil skirt with the shirt tucked inside. I won the Valentine's day cardio circuit (jump rope for 38 minutes).

    Just saw this. Jump rope for 38 minutes. That would be killer - go you!

    2 NSV's today. I had to tighten the chest strap on my Polar HRM, as it was getting baggy and I bought a full length mirror. I don't think I've had a full length mirror for a decade. Big step on acceptance!

    Pics taken on the weekend with my tiny niece didn't make me want to hide in a dark room forever. I actually look ok! I also bought a bathroom scale because the one at the gym is rubbish - weigh less than I thought! Huzzah!

    I've played competitive soccer since I was young, and I've always been pretty good (I like to think :wink: ) but I took a year off last year because I was just too busy between work and school I didn't think I could handle it. After realizing how much I missed it (and how terribly out of shape I'd gotten) I decided to join back in this winter. At the beginning of the season I was barely making it through our 6 minute shifts without needing a break. Well today during the second half of our game, one of my teammates had to leave early, while we were already down a player, and since I started the half it meant I had to play the whole half (25 minutes), and I did it and still managed to play well! It felt nice since I used to be able to play whole games without a sub and it had gotten disheartening how much my being out of shape was affecting my game.

    It was a nice little NSV since the scale hasn't been moving at all :smile:

    Reached a personal goal of mine and rewarded myself by going through my wardrobe. I will now have clothes in storage that are too big for me not just totes full of too small clothes. Some of the shirts I took out of storage are in that sweet spot where they fit just right. They show off how much weight I have already lost but don't accentuate how much I have left to lose.

    Coworkers and family saying that I've finished the weight loss aspect of my journey - I haven't. Lol
    I Am focusing more on weights however and not So much cardio.

    Even when I'm ahead of the game calorie wise, it's hard for me to Really go in and pig out the way that I use to do...

    I start in March as a part time fitness instructor. (Two classes)

    I looked absolutely phenomenal in a dress that I wore tonight... Per different women commenting on the fit and inquiring where I purchased it. I do realize that the dress Was Making me to a certain degree. Lol

    I have a few to add.
    My hair has always been on the thinner finer side to where you could easily see my scalp at times. Lately with the weight loss though it has been appearing to be a bit fuller and I'm getting better coverage. I guess our heads lose weight too.

    This next isn't so much a victory but I'm putting it here anyway. I love to bake and I am the messiest cook you can imagine. Some years ago I had a retro style apron custom made for me because I was too fat to tie the standard size aprons around my waist. And I really loved it. However, it is comically huge on me now. I've passed it on to my cousin who is thrilled to have something so cute and practical. And I can pick one up at any store now.

    I jogged for 18 minutes on the treadmill yesterday and didn't feel like passing out :blush:. My stamina has definitely improved over the past few weeks and it's nice to not feel like I'm being smothered whilst doing cardio :).

    As my body has gone down in size I've played a little game with myself. Whenever I can pull my jeans down without unzipping them I buy the next size down, knowing I will reach it eventually. Yesterday I bought a size 8 as my inspiration jeans. I started out wearing extremely tight 24s.

    Saw my pulmonary doctor yesterday and he said he "graduated" me from having to use the CPAP machine ... All due to weight loss. That and I am able to wear my mothers ring again. I am so happy and grateful for both. Happy days.

    that is terrific. how much weight did u lose
