Since my last post I have actually lost weight. I am now 195 pounds! I have accomplished a few of my goals too (see August '08 post).....I am now under 200, fit into a size 14 and I can comfortably wear shorts.I figured since I could pull my size 16 jeans off with them still buttoned and zipped I might as well go shopping and try on a size 14. So I went to Sears and pulled a size 14 off the rack and did the usual when I got them to the dressing room.....I held them up and said "there is no way my big ass is fitting in these" and then I attempted to put said big ass in them. I pulled one leg on and thought "maybe my big ass will fit in these". Then I pulled the other leg on and finally got them buttoned and zipped. And my big ass almost passed out!! haha
Guess my ass isn't as big as I thought!After I fit into the size 14 jeans I figured I should weigh. So the next day (Friday, May 22nd) I weighed and I almost passed out again!! The scale said 199!!!
I was so happy I took a picture and posted it on here. And the same weekend I wore shorts in public.So I accomplished 3 of my goals in 3 consecutive days! And I must be doing something right cuz I've lost another 4 pounds since May 22nd. I've been trying to lay off the beer though. Still working on the carb thing. I do need to get a full body pic done and post it....it's a nice change from my before pic!! I went out Saturday night and someone told me I looked like Anna Nichole Smith. I've had several people tell me that recently so I thought that was pretty cool!
The next goals I want to accomplish are getting into a size 12 and weighing under 175. Hopefully I can do that before October. The fashion show at Sacred Heart is on August 4th and I'm gonna be in it so maybe I can be at 185 by then. I have a cute dress I would like to wear in it.
Guess that's all for now....sorry for the long post but so much good stuff has happened! ttyl.....
