A few NSVs and 1 SV

ashlinmarie · August 2011

I work at McDonalds and just started back about a month ago after having a month off while moving and such. When I left my last store at the end of June, I was wearing 36" pants, tightly and at my new store, the 36"'s fell right off! They put me in 34's which were tight then but now are starting to fit a little lose around the hips as well!

Also, we wear gloves in the back while making sandwiches and I've been having to wear larges for awhile now. The mediums just would not fit me without breaking. While working the other day, I just grabbed a pair without looking and slid them on with ease and I then realized, I'd grabbed from the medium box! Even my hands have lost a little weight

I'm finally finding clothes that look nice (not great, but its a start) on me and I can fit into size 10s again (though a little snug, so sticking with 12s for now).

Then finally, the icing on my cake, I weighed in this morning and I was down to 174.8 lbs! I am now down 20.2 lbs since I started and thus hitting my first big goal! I am just flying on a high right now and I celebrated with a bike ride and oatmeal pancakes and will be rewarding myself with a new haircut/color once I get my next paycheck! This has definitely given me the motivation I need to keep going and my dad said he'd give me money to buy all new clothes when I hit my goal weight (which I expect to be around Christmas) so now I have to work really hard to lose those 25-30 lbs by then! I know I can do it if I just stick to my diet and kick my own butt in workouts every day!
