Okay, so I know I haven't updated much lately. But quite honestly I would have been writing the same thing over and over if I had. I felt compelled to jump on here today because I have a couple of WOW moments lately!
FIRST let me say I hit FIFTY POUNDS of weight loss!!!! WOOOHOOO. I can't begin to describe the feeling when I could say the big 5-0! That was last week and I have been proud to shout out that number to anyone who will listen.
Now today, I had a mini meltdown! The last few weeks people here and there have made comments about my pants being a little big. I knew they were loose on me, but not THAT much. So long story short I was at Kohls today (I LOVE THAT STORE)... and decided I was going to be brave and try on a smaller size. I grabbed some 14's and 12's. I have been wearing 14's for a few weeks now, so I thought maybe, just maybe a 12 might work. I also grabbed a large and medium in shirts. So I tried the 14's with a large shirt. They fit "okay", but decided to see how CLOSE I was to a medium and a 12 pants. I almost didn't want to do it, its discouraging when things dont fit. But I wanted to see how close I was to being another size smaller. So I tried on the medium shirt....IT FIT!!! Now, the jeans....guess what??? THEY FIT TOO!!! I zipped and buttoned, then I sat there looking in the mirror and I just cried. A good cry of course. I was amazed....finally amazed with myself. I am officially OVER half way to my goal. For the first time in a long time something good was happening to me, and I felt deserving of it. Now thats a good feeling.
