Im down to the wire and it doesnt look like Im gonna be making my b-day goal.  I wanted to be in One-derland by March 5.......I have been pretty much on a stall these past 3 weeks and its very frustrating.  I am, however, very happy to announce I have been running (jogging) a mile every day at the gym.  Who would have thought I could run......I actually love it and it motivates me everyday to beat my time.  I do see a big change in my muscle tone all over my body and im so glad I do work out a bunch.  I am growing to love the new me!  I also just got a new (dramatic) hair do and will be posting new pics of my 6mths real soon.  PROMISE!  :)

I had a job interview today and I wore a size 16 pants with a size Lg shirt.  I actually havent worn that shirt in almost 9 years so im very excited about that.  Im struggling at the weight part.  For some reason my body likes to stay on stalls.  I guess its testing my motivation b/c I have a ONE-derland goal to reach before my birthday on March 5.....Wish me luck!

I'll try and post some pics tonight or tomorrow.  Hope everyone is well and sorry I havent been posting and emailing ya'll lately.  I'll try to do better!  MUAH

Okay so Im 4 months out now.  I have lost another 14 lbs this month and only lost 2 inches (and you would know it was from my boobs) lol.  That makes a total of 78 lbs lost and 27 1/2 inches.  I am now fitting into some size 18 jeans and size 14 shirts.  I am very excited about that but cant fit into my old navy 18 jeans.  I can fit into old navy size 16 shorts and skirts but not 18 pants.  I guess cause I carry most of my weight in my fat legs.  Oh well at least im out of the 20's now.  I cleaned out my closet and loaded up 3 bags of clothes for one of my friends.  I was shocked to see that I even has size 26 jeans in my closet.  I guess I lived in denial about how big I really was.  My husband was so shocked that I actually got rid of clothes for once in 8 years.  LOL  Well this is the first time I actually knew I WASNT EVER gonna need them again!!!

Well it was a great day.  I was very proud of myself.  I cooked green bean casserole with cheese in it, 5 cheese mac & cheese and 2 pumpkin, pecan pies.  My family all got together at my dads and we had a FEAST but I only ate a few bites of my favs and started with the ham and turkey.  I fixed my hubby & kids plates and it actually grossed me out to see the amounts of food I used to eat.  I ended up going outside while they all eat b/c the smell and site of it all nauseated me.  I started sweating and feeling sick.  That is so funny.  I only ate that one small portion all day b/c I didnt want anymore after that episode earlier.  I ended up losing 2 lbs that day which was great b/c normally I would have gained it and more.  I took a pic that day which im not that thrilled with but at least ya'll can see me.  I did have a wow moment on Saturday when I went shopping at Cato's.  I actually got into a size 18 pants and skirt.  I also wore a 14 shirt.  That was crazy.  I still dont fit in my old navy 18 pants so I guess they are made bigger but it was great anyway.  I cant wait to fit in my old navy pants.  A friend gave me tons of 14, 16 & 18's old navy jeans.  They are sooooo cute.  Dont worry when I squeeze into them, you will all see the pics!  ha ha ha
