Last night I went shopping for Christmas gifts for people on my list. As it sometimes happens I ended up in the store shopping for me. I saw these blazers really cute and fitted. Never thinking they would fit me I tried one on size 18 it was too big. I won't do the three bear thing but I worked my way down to size 14 and it fit. Oh happy day. I started to cry right there in the middle of the store. 2 years ago I was a size 30/32 now size 14/16 it is unreal. Below is the Blazer. I am going to love to were it to the office. Looking so cute.

Well just like Cheryl posted recently:
You fail to plan, you plan to fail!
Hoping my planing pays off.
I have decided to commit to not do what I did last year around this time. Gain Weight and Cry about it. I have taken steps to prepare for the Coming of the BERMUDA TRIANGLE! Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years. Last year in January I was up almost 15lbs. My steps are
1.To get motivated.
2. Have a buddy the weight me in once a week. I find that if I step on and someone else see it I will do better.
3. Move more!
Drum roll please......I have done 1 mile walking for the past 3 days. I enjoyed it and today when I did it it was easier. Who know?
Wish me luck. Hope to see less of me come January.
Stephine, I love this would you mind if I posted it on All in your mind site of you can. Let me know
