My 12 yo looked over at me, sitting with my chin in hand while he did his math, and said, “Wow Mom, you are so muscular! You muscles are just…out there!”
He sure knows how to compliment his mom!24 -
Yesterday was my first day back to work after being out sick for over a week. I did a full 30 minute workout when I got home! It was really hard, but I made it through. Right back on track like I never had to stop

Went back to the store where I'd had the panic attack in the dressing room and bought those darned pants!!!48

My blood pressure is consistently back in the normal range.27

Yesterday I had to tie the drawstring of my favorite pants to keep them on! A sad moment as I love them, but a joyous moment because YAY!20

I plan on sewing shorter elastic into all my favorites once I reach goal.
Well, done on the NSV.

I came back after a diet break, and said diet break wasn't a foodtastic free for all.
Considering the fact that the diet break wasn't planned out and consisted of me eating at maintenance or maybe a little above and not exercising as much for four whole days, Old Me would have given up at that point and decided I was a failure. Even though I am still a little worn down and work is still going to be nuts, continuing my progress is important enough that New Me is right back on the active weight loss train.
This is important to me because I'm really, super good at giving up, and so continuing my losses (instead of calling 150 pounds Good Enough) is a win. I will call it Good Enough when my belly isn't sticking out.33 -
The next size down in scrubs is still baggy. 19

@BrightEyedAgain I have a-lot of emotions bubbling up at each weight. For weeks, I would not let myself lose anymore weight because of fear of regaining. And I also freaked out big time when I started wearing size 4 and 2/4 pants. How could I fit into that size! That was smaller than the 6s worn the last time I lost. Now I am not letting myself get hung up on the numbers and weigh below the numbers that I had mental hang ups on. It is a new page to write.14

That's great advice, thanks! And I'm glad I'm not the only one. Today's been much better. I realized part of my problem is feeling scattered because I don't know what fits and what doesn't in my closet. Again. I went through everything this Spring and really thought I wouldn't get much smaller. But, it's time to do another reorg and try stuff on again. I have a bunch of "too small" tubs from the past, and tonight I rediscovered several tops that made me smile. It brought up some good memories to balance out the bad ones. You're absolutely right--the number doesn't matter because I'm not that person anymore anyway. I just happen to be small enough to wear those sizes again. At the end of the day, they're just clothes. They're not who I am on the inside.22

Good for you!! A break is very different than stopping. It's like taking a nap when you've had several busy/long days.13 -
The scale hasn't moved since the end of March. However I've dropped one size in two different brands of pants!!!28

I'd be super excited to do either of those without ending up at the ER. LOL. Congratulations on doing both together!!!13 -

I went shopping for new work clothes yesterday. Went for the size I have been wearing for a month or so and had to go back and get a smaller size!20

I started working from home in February and starting sitting all day. Last month, I decided to set my alarm to go off every hour from 9-4 and I would get up and move for five minutes. I just checked the calendar and realized that I've been doing it consistently for FIVE and a half weeks!!!32

The dress that I am wearing today has become a bit of an embarassing nuisance as the sleeve of the dress keeps falling off coz I've lost weight around my shoulders thanks to regular weight lifting. It's slightly infuriating 17

Today, I became merely obese instead of morbidly obese!41
