    Everyone's doing so fantastic!! It's inspiring!

    I slipped into a pair or jeans this morning that I haven't worn in quite a few years! And it wasn't a struggle!! :)

    Yesterday when I went to subway and sat down in a booth my stomach wasn't sitting on the table. It used to or was wedged in and uncomfortable. Now I only have an inch or so there now but it's much more comfortable.

    I was completed on my makeup contouring today. Thing is I wasn't wearing makeup. Looks like someone rediscovered their cheekbones haha.

    Walked over 3 miles in sand. Last time I was in sand I was exhausted going back and forth from car to ocean.

    I've been trying to lose weight primarily to get my body back to a weight that can support fertility, after being diagnosed with PCOS in January 2015 when my cycles stopped.

    After 16 months without it, I have FINALLY gone through a cycle! (And even more than that, it's a natural one: Not caused my hormonal BC!) I'm completely thrilled! A very long way to go for my weight goal... but this is SO much more motivating than any label on a pair of jeans has been, for me!

    SMurphy, so happy for you! I don't have any experience with PCOS, but I would like to encourage you with plus size pregnancy. I was 280 with my first and 305 with my second. Both were weights most "experts" would discourage. But I found a great OB who believed weight doesn't automatically make a person high-risk. She was awesome, and I defied the odds by not having gestational diabetes with either pregnancy. We larger gals can rock pregnancy too!

    I went camping and they had a few hiking trails. I did one one day and was actually kind of happy with how i did. I knew there was another girl that was more difficult in a lot longer and at first I was nervous I wouldn't be able to do it. I decided to try anyway and I Pace myself and I made it to the end. 3 Mile moderate strenuous hike. Actually quite proud of myself

    My friend lives in an apartment building that does not have an elevator and she lives on the top floor. I would usually have to stop after every 1-2 flights of stairs because I couldn't breathe and was exhausted. I visited her yesterday, did all the stairs without stopping and was not completely out of breathe when we got to the top! I was super proud

    When I got my Fitbit in mid-March, I had to fasten it with 6 holes remaining. Today I fastened it with just four. :)

    I've been out of work for the past 6 weeks and today I went back. My uniform is now loose. My work pants are so big on me they fall right off I have to wear a belt and order new ones.

    Went to the doctor this week for my annual check up. At first the doctor was worried because I lost 19 lbs in about 3 months, but after I told him it was on purpose he relaxed. Fasting glucose dropped from 103 last year to 97.

    Speaking of jeans, my NSV was wearing jeans for the first time in 3 years this past weekend!

    I am happy and envious of all the jean wearers. I have not lost enough in my legs to get back into my jeans yet. I can't wait though

    With pool season approaching, I worked up the courage to try on last summer's swim suit. It confirmed my fear that a good bit of my weight has been lost from the chest area. :neutral:

    I tried on pre-baby #2 suit -- unfortunately, some of the elastic has dry - rotted, so it can't be worn. However, it showed me that the long, swim dress style looks horrible on me now. It was just hanging limp and sad.

    I then reached way back in the closet and found the suit I wore ten years ago on my honeymoon. It was snug, but I got it on!! I'm probably about 15 lbs from wearing it comfortably and in public. :smile:

    So I get to buy a new swimsuit this year, and I'm actually a little excited to go shopping for it!
