So a bit of a back story. Before I lost 15lbs I felt horrible seeing myself in the mirror. I didn't like how anything looked and I HATED going to buy new clothes.
Well, I am officially 15lbs down from where I've started and today was a great day.
I'm going to the beach in about 5weeks and I've got about 10 more lbs I want to lose before then. I went shopping today for some new shirts and maybe some dresses for the beach.
I found 2 new shirts, one beachy dress and one dressy dress. The dresses were one size smaller than the size I've had before and the shirts were TWO sizes smaller! I could not believe it. AND even better, I'm not at my goal weight yet, but when I looked in the mirrow I said "I look good" I didn't think I looked horrible. I know I've still got a bit more to lose, but thinking that I look good feels great!
Now that just gives me the motivation I had lost to lose the rest!
