March 27, 2012 - I'm OVERWEIGHT!!!

Mar 26, 2012

I made it!  I am NO LONGER OBESE.  I AM OVERWEIGHT.  I never dared to hope this day would actually arrive but it has.  My BMI is now 29.8 and I couldn't be happier.

Yesterday I stopped in at the Salvation Army (I know, I know - get past it) and their special of the week was buy two clothing items, get the third one free.  I went to the dress section and started browsing through it for summer dresses.  I found a 2 piece dress that has a beautiful floral print in the colours that I love.  Here's the thing.  It has no shoulders.  It has a band which fits over your head and sits at the neck and the fabric of the front and back flows down like a triangle to the armpits.  

It actually accents the fact that I have bony shoulders!  I LOVE IT....AND...the fabric goes from my neck to just below my knees making me look ALMOST pencil thin.  Now I just have to get me some nice underwear to hold the bits together just so and I'll be ready for a party this summer.        WOOHOO!

Today Bert weighs 175.4 lbs.  I have not weighed less than my husband almost since we met.  My next mini goal is to weigh less than Bert.  I don't know how long it will take to lose that 5 lbs but it doesn't matter.  I'll do the work and wait for the results 'cause I AM GOING TO MAKE IT!
