Today I can fit my "fat jeans" from 12 years ago.

I went to buy new clothes on the weekend and had no clue what size I was. Being optimistic I grabbed Mediums and size 8, mentally thinking that I would be lucky to get into them. Went to try them on and the pants fell off of me!

I am officially a size 6!! I have never ever been a size 6 in my life!

Going from a size 14 I used to think a size 8 was unobtainable or just a day dream. But a SIZE 6!! I am beyond impressed with myself.

I just have to share my amazing experience yesterday. As I was planning my running schedule this week (Week 8 of Couch to 5K), I decided my 3-28 minute run days, and then decided to throw in a 'light' 20 minute run on a day when I'm working late. Then I had to start crying and laughing because I spent 5 (well, 6) solid weeks afraid of W5D3(the 1st 20 minute run). I am not recognizing the person (dare I say RUNNER!), I've become. I really feel like a runner, and this is from someone who averaged 1,000 steps a day 4 months ago. I am working hard to shed the fear and embrace a healthy me:) It's going to be an awesome summer full of tennis, volleyball and plenty of outdoor time.

I fit in my size 11 jeans from high school! At the start of my journey 14s were getting tight

Maxed out the leg press machine last night at 490 lbs x 12. I'm finally up to using the inclined leg press with plates, that's a big win for me! A few months ago I was struggling with mid 200's x 10. /cheer

My fasting blood sugar this morning was 102. So close to normal. Yay!! Side note my highest I've seen was 120 or so.

Someone told me I looked great, and I really believed them.

This made my tear up. So. F-ing. Awesome.

I ran my first 10k ever and finished 3rd in my age division!

Saw my reflection in a window while walking around campus today and felt like I could actually see progress!! Feels good

I have been adding reps to my kettlebell workout slowly over the last 3-4 weeks. Today I did the math and realized that I am doing 198 more reps (over the course of 3 rounds of 8 sets) than when I started at the beginning of March!

I saw someone in passing that I haven't seen in a couple months, and the first thing they say is "have you lost weight - you look good!. Why yes, yes I have

Last night, I attended my son's annual end-of-year band concert. It's held in the local high school's auditorium, which has seats that are NOT forgiving for larger people. At last year's concert, I had trouble fitting in the seat. This year, however, I fit in the seat just fine. That made me smile pretty big.

I donated blood after almost 8 yrs! BP and diabetes took a toll on my health and I had lost my track. Now, after having lost over 40 lbs, my BP and sugar levels are 'pretty normal'. Yay! Feels good when you contribute something to the society.

My wedding dress came in yesterday. I was so nervous to go try it on because I haven't seen it since November. I had also ordered it a size smaller than I was at the time so I was terrified I hadn't lost a whole size. But when I tried it on at the store the lady says we're going to have to take it in a bit! Panic over.

I'm a school nurse, and I have lunch duty every day. I used to spend it pretty much standing in one spot--this year I decided it was a great opportunity to get more steps in, so now I walk around the cafeteria the whole time. Yesterday, a 3rd-grader said to me "You must not ever have to go to the gym, cause you walk all the time!" Glad they're noticing!

Fantastic! One less thing to stress over!

I can go down a notch in my belt:)
Lol it's a big deal to me. Plus it's getting easier to do push ups

Took my children to the park earlier and I can fit - comfortably - on the swings (not the baby ones - YET). I haven't been able to sit on a swing comfortably for DECADES. Literally, DECADES.

I had a great time swinging and even had the courage to jump off like I did as a child. All the while my husband was sadly shaking his head at me. But I didn't care, it was FUN! And I'm going again tomorrow, the children will have to race me to the swings (but I'll win the race, my strides are bigger, hee, hee!)

Did my first Spartan race and boy it was a killer. 15.2 miles, over 5500 vertical feet, 30 obstacles and taking me just over 6 hrs. Hardest physical thing I've done in my life. Only missed one obstacle, the spear throw, so I was happy to limit my burpees to 30. Never fought cramps so long...started mile 3. All in all, a great experience though and a memory I'll never forget.

I had a pair of jeans that my teenaged daughter begged me not to wear again due to "saggy mom butt". I asked her what she meant, and she said that they were so baggy on me that they looked awful.
