ALMOST There!
Dec 22, 2009
I can't believe it! I am ALMOST to my goal of losing 75 lbs! My goal was to weigh 150lbs by Christmas, but I don't think I'm quite going to make it. Christmas is only 3 days away and I'm at 153. Still - not too shabby! I wonder when I will stop losing? I'm sure it will be pretty soon. I really can't imagine getting smaller than I am right now. Not that I would mind!! But I really can't put my mind around it. When I was in high school I was 5'6" and 125 and I could eat ANYTHING I wanted. But I know that's not realistic after having 2 kids! Some places on my body will never be the same!I had to go swimsuit shopping this past weekend at the Mall of America. We're staying at a hotel for New Year's Eve and the kids want me to go swimming with them. Let me tell you - shopping for a suit in December is NOT easy! Hello, don't they realize that people take vacations?? So I finally found one that I liked and I got a size 12 (I've noticed that the more expensive the clothes, the smaller their sizes are!) I got a tankini (which is what I wore before). The top is stripped navy blue & white (YES, horizontal stripes and they look great) and the bottoms are a navy blue skirt-type. I still have to wear the skirt-type becuase after losing this weight the place where I show it the most (have the excess skin that is) is on my inner thighs. So as long as a wear a bottom that has the little skirt on it you can't see it and noone is the wiser! And I think they look cute!! So I've been tanning and now I can't wait to show off my new suit to my family!
I hope everyone has a Happy Holiday! ~ Marion
