    I went bra shopping and was explaining to the shop assistant that I've lost so much weight I had no idea what size I was.

    She was about the same height as me and started asking me how I had done it and telling me that I was a healthy weight that she'd like to be. I was so honoured to have her ask me questions about my weightloss.

    Before I would have only been consulted on the best tasting pizza to order....

    I can touch my thumb to my pinky about half the time I do my exercises.

    Our company Christmas party is coming up.

    In the past (when I was 230lbs and wearing a US18/20), I had to wear mumsy dresses because that's all that would fit and cover up the parts I didn't want people to see (pretty much everything).

    Yesterday I went shopping for a dress for the event. First of all, there were TONS of options. Second, dress sizes are weird and I tried on everything from a US12 to a US6 to find the right fit. I wound up with a beautiful one-shouldered black dress that doesn't hide ANYTHING. And I felt AMAZING! Shopping is (distressingly) way too much fun now :smile:

    Basing off your profile, pic, you have every reason to not hide anything! That has got to be a great feeling. Have fun at the party!!!

    I ran for 60 minutes on my treadmill. That's the longest time I have ever run without having to take a walk break (or three).

    I have been at a weight loss plateau for about 3 weeks. I know I am counting my calories correctly and meeting my exercise goals, so it has been very difficult to stay positive as I lose and gain the same pound over and over.

    So... yesterday I did my measurements two weeks ealier than i had planned and... I have lost a significant amount in inches all over my body! More inches than I lost in the previous 2 months!

    Also, my husband reminded me that I just bought new jeans and leggings in a size smaller than I was wearing in September.

    Speaking of leggings, I haven't worn them in years because they were all too tight. Nor have I been able to wear tights - just too uncomfortable at my high weight.

    I bought both a couple of weeks ago because I am always cold (I live in New England), and really wanted something to wear under my sweats at home, but thought I would have to wear my older, larger sweats over the leggings in order for them to not be too bulky and tight. But I put on the leggings this morning, and put my newer, smaller sweats over them, and I am sitting here, warm and comfortable and happy. :)
  • I've had a few recently:
    1. I am officially down to a medium size in tops! I won a T shirt in a raffle drawing at work and wasn't really given a choice in size, just handed a medium shirt. It fits perfectly. Then I went to a concert and bought an awesome band t shirt. They only had smalls and mediums left in the shirt I loved so I decided to get a medium because if it didn't fit now, it would soon. (Still in denial about the t shirt I won in the raffle) It fits!! This is so exciting because I haven't been a medium since high school! Which was *ahem* 15 years ago!
    2. A few of my large tops and vanity sized XLs are getting too baggy to wear. Which kind of helped me to realize that I really am doing this and it isn't all in my head.
    3. I can officially tighten my belt one notch tighter!
    4. I can see some definition in my abs, finally.
    Between these changes and now I have only lost 5 pounds since September and it has been a slow 2 months. It's nice to know that I am making progress even if if the scale is reflecting it much.

    I looked over my shoulder in the mirror today while I was getting dressed and realized I don't ANY have back fat rolls anymore. That's a far cry from this summer, when I was at my heaviest in my life. :smile:

    Was at a day conference type thing on Saturday and they were selling t-shirts...unlike most people I have the problem where I think I'm still the little bitty person I once was lol, and everything looks big to me. I grabbed a large and thought it looked huge but then had a little convo in my head where I said stop doing this you're in denial you always do this and then end up having to return to get a larger size. Grabbed the XL and thought noooo way this is a night gown.. but then told myself come on this is probably your size. I decided well ok I'll get the large and if it doesn't fit now I'll just be able to wear it in a month or two. I tried it on this AM to see just how tight it would be, and....it fits! No pulling, no tugging, no bunching around my hips...just perfect!

    Two new ones this week.

    I did 300 lbs on the leg press!

    Last night, we decided to try to new the new Fuddruckers. I managed to resist the roll and just eat my burger with jack cheese and jalapenos. As good as it smelled, it just wasn't worth the calories. I even had enough calories left beneath my goal so I really had to think hard about it.

    Got a pair of shorts a size smaller a few weeks ago. They fit perfectly in the store but now the butt was a bit saggy and noticed some give in the waist. Guess I'll need to go a size down near Christmas!

    Also did a workout today. Wasn't much but feel good about it since been slacking with exercise lately

    Last Saturday we had friends over for dinner. Halfway through a magnificent home made tangerine souffle I stopped. I was full and as much as I liked it I was not going to finish it.

    Second one; It was my BIL birthday on Sunday and we were going to visit. Usually we take the car or bike to visit. After some debating we came to the conclusion really it is only just over half an hours walk. So we walked and we loved it. Walking back in the evening just before bed was a good way to fall asleep feeling very relaxed.

    Hit several PRs in the last month (sorry for units, been traveling between US and Europe. PRed on different continents, lol)

    80x3 kg Squat (176 lbs)
    175x3 lbs deadlift
    37.5x5 kg bench press (83 lbs)
    65 lbs x5 OHP

    Its super motivating to see the lifts increase bit by bit!
