I went to buy a cute pair of pants (colourful with ripped thighs) nothing that I would pick before
I was looking for my size (checking out L) when the sales lady came and said.. "Let me see you i think you are a S)
Kid you not, I laughed her off and took the S and the M to the dressing room
Turns out,I was indeed a S

I was well under my calorie limit yesterday, so I added a little bit of sugar to a snack.
It tasted too sweet. I'm getting to where I don't even like sugar.20 -

8 weeks on MFP! 👊👊👊👊👊😃😃😃😃
My journey so far:
- I have continuously logged everything for 60 days
- All my clothes are getting baggy-er and will need new winter clothes at a smaller size 😊
- My fitness is amazing! 3.5km on C25K, 4km hiking in 45mins, I can manage 12 (!!!) assisted pullups 😮 Strength is definitely improving
- Face has thinned down, arms are showing definition, legs are noticeably thinner. Stomach area looking flatter. Bust slightly smaller....
- Right ankle pain GONE, knee pain GONE, lower back issues GONE, ITB much much better.
- I feel more happier, am kinder to myself, sleep a *kitten* load better and feel more focussed.
- I have been logging 1300-1600 net calories, with the exception on some Saturday's, where it's around 1600-2000
I am the most happiest that I can share this with MFP family. Unfortunately, my husband hasn't commented/not shown any care and my sister doesn't react well with anything weightloss or fitness related.
But this community has given me so much support, motivation and love. I thank each one of you 😊😊😊💗💗💗💗💗👊👊👊👊49 -
Retrospective: Today is six months since giving away all the junk food and getting serious
A.) I’ve made it six months, including logging in every single day since I joined MFP a month or so in.
B.) I no longer crave foods and I seem to have broken the habit of mindlessly eating (it helps to stay occupied, including something as simple needlepoint to divert the hands)
C.) I’ve discovered oranges, cottage cheese with strawberries and blueberries, and banana smoothies can be extremely sweet and satisfying, now that my palate is “cleansed”
D.) I saw my mortal enemy-Cadbury’s Crispy Eggs- in the grocery last night, picked up the splurge bag I had promised myself for my weightiversary, read the calories, and put it back down again (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). I would very honestly eat two bags a day as soon as they hit the shelves after Valentines. Instead, I’m treating myself to raisin bread French toast for breakfast today. And fitting it in my calories.
E.) Yesterday I held crow pose (a personal goal) and also found myself (for an instant!) in flying pigeon the first time I ever tried it.
F,) Friday two fit guys had a discussion with me about how they wished they were as strong in the core as me (yeah, I posted that up-thread but I’m still in the afterglow if that one) in Pilates
G.) I’ve gone from very well into the obese range to just a blink away from “normal”, but I’m trying to slow down the weight loss now, and am feeling weight-confidence-mature enough to accept that it may be another few weeks. No rush for that last 2 3/4 pounds. And then I’ll establish a new goal.
Folks, I am living proof it can be done. Six months ago I was like “yeah, right, I just don’t want this new prescription, so let’s try this”, but at 56, I have newfound confidence, inner and outer strength and energy, and I feel better than I have for the last thirty years.
I sincerely wish the same for all of you.46 -
I’m no longer considered obese 😁46

There were free doughnuts at work on Friday and I looked at them and genuinely decided I didn't want one. Even a month ago, I may have chosen not to have one and then sat either feeling virtuous or like I was missing out. This time, there was no emotion attached beyond 'nah, not today'. Huge step for me.36

I went over my calorie goals last night (drinking a bit and eating bar food) but when I logged it all this morning I realized I'd eaten way less than I usually would when out, I even stopped eating all the friend stuff cause my stomach couldn't handle it! Huge victory for me15

I bought sailor style pants, the kind with buttons on the sides of your belly that really highlight the lower stomach area. I remember being on a double date when I was 22 (twenty years ago) and thinking the other girl was so lucky she could wear those pants. She wasn't skinny but still looked very good in them and I definitely could not see myself ever being able to wear that (very large fat roll in that area). Yesterday she was my inspiration because I looked just like she did in them, I practically wanted to high-five myself if I'm honest!45
