Doctor officially removed the pre-diabetic, high blood pressure and high cholesterol diagnoses from my chart.39

Put in a dress from last year with a pretty loud and horizontal print that (just) fit last year but I was never confident enough to wear. Put it on today and it’s wearable but loose and comfy.
Also, PMSing like crazy (oh, the crabbiness and headache). Ate an extra RX bar, had some Nada Moo coconut ice cream with wild blueberries and wine. Not exactly sure calorie count, but likely at or below maintenance. Only took two of hubby’s sauce covered shrimp and gave him the leftover homemade donuts with real ice cream. Of course in the throws of PMs cravings I remembered I still have an unopened box of good chocolate from Mothers Day. Hoping I forget that again before bed.17 -

I can sit on a camp stool without worrying about the weight limit!18

Tomorrow is my day 7. It feels different this time, like I'm mentally finally "ready" to lose weight. I haven't been playing around with the calories everyday, I'm just going slow. I'm not going to start at 1200 and not be able to make it last for a week. I'm finally in it for the long run and it feels good taking back control30

I started May 9 at 134lbs and in the “overweight” BMI category.
Today I’m 126.5lbs and now in the “Normal” BMI category!
Have a ways to go but I’m so happy with this progress.

My son and I ran the same route today as we ran yesterday and knocked three minutes and fifteen seconds off our time from yesterday's run.
So I guess that we ran a little faster (I don't do fast, in fact, most people can probably walk faster than I can run).26 -
For the first time in I don’t know how long, I had a picture taken of me from the back that I didn’t hate. I actually like the picture. Considering where I started... I feel pretty good!
Some pictures... I’m not at goal yet, but I’m getting close!

My wife looked at my work uniform today and said "That shirt fits differently on you now. There's room in it that wasn't there before."26

Accidentally wearing my 12 year old daughter's jeans. Not realising it until I took them off at the end of the day and saw the label.38

Bought a medium bathing suit and it fits.21

Made it out to try on some capris and store hasn’t been getting new stock and was half empty. Good news: sale! Bad news: hardly any summer clothing. I’m right at the awkward cusp between petites and regular sizes, but I found my regular size in petites, so one pair of capris purchased!
The NSV is I bought a pair of regular high waisted jeans. I have no idea if they’re still “in”, but I see a lot of girls around here wearing them. I never thought I would bc I have terrible memories of the baggy giant “mom butt” these jeans produced in the early 90s. But I now feel pretty confident (also helped that these were a size down from my regular size). Now I just need to figure out what to wear with them!

The jeans look great! The fit is definitely important in high-waisted jeans to avoid the "mom jeans" look, haha.3 -
I had purse and car keys in hand 3x times this weekend, ready to head out the door to buy "garbage." It was a rough weekend with personal / family problems, and I got busy and kept my mind off things and didn't binge on junk food. I'm proud of myself.27

I have a few from the past few days. 1. I've had 3 or 4 compliments on my fitness level since Friday. 2. I've been able to push myself to work harder since the gym reopened. I think part of it is that I have known one of the trainers at my gym for several years, and just knowing her and how hard she works out is subconsciously motivating me to work harder. 3.As a result, I used 30 lb dumbells for my bicep curls today and 40 lb dumbells for my dumbell chest press today. Both for about 10-12 reps.18

I have hated how I've looked for so long and I actually don't hate this picture and my dimples are back. Can't remember the last time I saw those, I know it was when a Bush was in office! Even the fact that I was willing to take a selfie is a NSV in itself. I really needed that motivation, too. Have been becoming complacent recently, so thank you God!

Such a great feeling!! Congratulations!!4 -
My skirts feel more comfortable. Even though I haven't lost that much weight since lockdown turns out I've lost a couple inches off my hips and waist, so that exercise is paying off in a different way!17

I bought a size 6 of my favorite brand of jeans with hoped that I could shrink into them eventually (wanted some inspiration in the closet). They came today so I tried them on to see how far I have to go. THEY FIT!!!!!!! They are a bit stretchy, which helps, but I don't think I've ever worn a 6. I went through puberty and immediately into a 10 and then 12s and 14s, and sometimes 16s.20

I just ordered underwear in my usual size and I'm kinda worried it might be too loose.12

Thank you! It definitely is, although it hasn't quite landed yet. I'm finally feeling good enough to do some actual exercising that isn't it stretching. It's been terrifying but I'm sure I will be able to do normal workouts soon enough!8 -
In a size ten (uk) top this morning, and dress yesterday. Even though I know that's mostly the fabric and cut (I'm a 14 really, going off measuring tape) I'll take the win!15

A few from me:
I moved from starting at stage 3 obese to stage 1 obese today.
Starting UK size 22 and now a size 16/18
Started T25 and didn't have to use the modifier for all the exercises (about 50/50 at the moment)

So... I haven't worn pants in months. It's been bathrobes and shorts with elastic, pretty much. So I wasn't expecting much of a change when I put pants on again, considering my waist/hip measurements have only changed by an inch or so. Anyway, I put on some pants and they were quite loose - had to cinch them down quite a bit!
I can also cross my legs now. Couldn't before. I still don't like to but I can DO IT. Also my belly is much farther from the steering wheel now that I'm driving a bit more frequently again.21 -
Only a 6lb and 3 week difference but look at how much inflammation I lost in my face!26 -
Another half inch off of my waist!19
