Milestone

nina1968

Last night i decided to try on my summer cloths from my thinner days, And i am so happy to say that not only did they fit but some of them were big. This is a huge milestone for me it is such a great feeling to be able to go to my closet and now know that anything I pull out will not only fit but it may be big. I have never felt better. I love this site and the encouragement that I get from it. My husband has been doing this with me also and I am so proud of him. He looks amazing and needs to buy clothing himself.
So if anyone has any doubts MFP really does work.

That is so great! Congrats to you and your hubby. My hubby and myself are finding the same things. We just don't want to buy anything until we absolutely have to :-) Keep at it and thank you for your story. It is truly inspirational and things like this keep me coming back.

can't give MFP all the credit, and i think that is what is awesome about it. Yes MFP keeps you accountable, and helps to show you how much you should be eating and track it, how much exercise, there's the motivational aspect etc. But YOU actually put in all the work, MFP just keeps track of it. And shows you have far you have come and how great you are doing!

by the way, i know how you feel about the clothes, i have the same thing, but things are starting to look TOO big! i guess it's a good thing, but i'm reluctant to go spend money until i reach my goal, or closesr to my goal. i guess everything will have to be baggy for a while.

WAY TO GO!!!

My solution to the "problem" of baggy clothes is THRIFT STORES! My friends go to the fancy ones - I go to goodwill stores. I can't afford nice clothes that will hopefully only fit a month or two! I spent an hour at one a couple weeks ago and found a pair of size 14 Jones New York slacks! SCORE! I bought a couple pairs of pants, some skirts and a top all for around $20. :bigsmile:

Congratulations to you on the weight loss and to your husband as well. I feel this site works as well because it keeps you motivated.
