    Getting ready for high school daughter's dance completion I put on last years school sweatshirt . It was so big that she gave me one of hers( that's really big on her..she's 5"'10" and 120). It fit a little loose. I'm amazed and suprized. My family loves hugging the smaller me-but they always love me too.

    I mail-ordered a whole bunch of size 16 clothes because I was swimming in my larger clothes. I have to send them all back because they are too big.

    Sounds like a pain in the *kitten*, but a good one in a way! :)

    Exactly! It's frustrating, yet exciting.

    I can wrap a towel completely around myself and walk around with it as a toga.

    Everyone's NSVs are so motivating. :)

    I have been having to belt on size 18 pants for about 2 months now, so yesterday I decided to buy myself a new pair of shorts before my vacation in a few weeks. I can wear a size 14 now!!! :D The last time I was in that size I was 15.... and I'm 20 now. I still have a long way to go, but it's super exciting nonetheless.

    Congratulations to everyone on their victories!!

    I sorta ''fell off the wagon'' for about a month. I was battling an ear infection, sickness, and a thrown out back. I just completely stopped working out or tracking and resorted to eating that comfort food that I love and grew up with. Lots of trips through the drive thru.... But, last week I decided enough! I had gained back 10 pounds of what I lost and I was really pissed at myself. I got back to it and dedicated myself. Last week I lost 11.8 pounds, losing all the weight I gained back plus an extra 1.8 pounds. I am back on track and feeling amazing. Tried my first day of the 30 day shred, I wasn't able to get through the whole thing, but I am gonna keep at it. :)

    Last weeks NSV was -2.5 combined inches!! Love when that happens. Definitely helps to see progress.
    I also didn't go over my calories despite all the goodies available to me on Mother's Day!!

    My Wedding dress Zips! All the way!

    Heres the sad story :

    I bought it last summer and it was perfect! It zipped, and fit and all was grand... Then I gained close to 40lbs and when I tried it on it was to small :(

    So I have been BUSTING *kitten* to fit back into it.. and it does!
