WOW moment!!!

Jul 01, 2009

Okay, so my scale hasn't really moved in the last week and a half (around 282 or 283) and I was feeling kind of down about it because I do aerobics and weight training 2 hours 5 days a week and not losing weight was starting to put a damper on my workouts.  Anywho, yesterday I decided while I was in Wal-Mart to try on some shorts just so that I could see exactly what size I am currently.  I started this journey in a size 24 pants and 26-28 shirt.  Well last week I borrowed a skirt from my cousin for church and it was a 20, but I had some room in it so I pressed my luck and tried the shorts in a 18, and guess what it had room in it too...WOW!!! So you know what I did next....I tried on some 16's and guess what, they fit perfectly...I was like OMG, I cannot even remember the last time I wore a size 16 (probably in junior high).  Now I've always had a wide back so I was really thinking that my top hadn't changed that much, well boy was I wrong. I was abel to get in a 2X at Wal-Mart which is a 18-20.  Oh my, I just don't know what to do with myself. LOL! I guess because I'm still wearing all of my old clothes, I can't see the difference in my body because those clothes just feel so comfortable.  My only wish is that I would have had my body measurements done before surgery so that I can see/know how many inches I'm losing.  My plan is to have someone measure me this week so that when I stall again, I can be reassured by knowing that I may be losing inches instead of weight.  Much love!!
