I went bra shopping on Saturday because I needed new ones at least for dress shopping. I was happy to hear I went down a band and a cup size. Lol though my bust hasn't gone away!!
I went shopping at my first ever appt yesterday for my wedding dress and I felt good in trying in the dresses. I'm not 100% what size pants I am since I just have 1 pair of smaller size pants and I find myself using a belt still. But that was enough to help the dress consultant to find dresses that fit me. The funny thing was as her and the owner were pulling dresses, they realized I was between sizes which was a little challenging for them, but in the end I found a dress that made me feel amazing, beautiful and confident. I have to make a decent amount of alterations, but I'm excited to wear it. So glad I found a dress during the 1st appt.
I also find it super fascinating how my body composition as changed this time around since working with my trainer because I fit in a dress now that I was 8 lbs lighter before.
I also had to size down my engagement ring. Haha.5 -
I wore some pre-preg work pants yesterday, the second-smallest of my old jeans. So nice to feel these old favorites, with plenty of room to move around in.3

Bought new jeans yesterday and I’m down a size.
I also sold a bunch of old clothing at a resale shop yesterday. My closet is almost pared down to a very small “capsule” wardrobe of things that fit well.
And... I’m trying out a clothing rental service this month! I really want to find my style again. I’ve been hiding in loose clothes since the little guy was born (um he’s two and a half!) and I am on a mission to change my mentality about what I can wear.4 -

Very good nsv. I’m doing the same thing. Having less in my closet is working out. This is exciting.1 -
Ran for 31 minutes/4km without stopping for a walk break. Still some way to go to get to my pre-illness fitness levels (and then more to get back to where is I was in 2012) but it feels like significant progress towards my now delayed fit-for-40 goal of a 30-minute 5k.3

^ super run! Especially post-illness. I have a similar 5k goal right now3

Here’s a fun one. I’m feeling better about myself all around and it’s helping me let my hair down - literally. I’ve quit blow-drying and I’m rocking my natural frizzy waves. Frees up a lot of time to not blow-dry. This is about so much more than the scale. It’s about feeling good again.SmithsonianEmpress wrote: »wellnesschaser wrote: »Bought new jeans yesterday and I’m down a size.

Yes! Less stuff = more time for... whatever!4 -
My NSV for this spring is that I have finally moved down to a smaller size jeans. Yay! So I went through my closet and started taking out things that are too big now. One of my favorite dresses that I haven’t worn for 10 years finally fits, but I saw that it is hopelessly out of style - so out it goes! Looking forward to doing this again soon!4

At first there was the joy of fitting into all my old clothes again without question. Now i have officially started buying smaller clothes because my bras and pants are all too loose. Yay!5

Bought some shorts and actually wore them out!5
