So it was time to get some new threads..last time I went shopping I didn't even know where to start because it had been so long since I'd had many options.

So Saturday, I brave the department store... I grabbed some things to try on...being brave and grabbing some thing to try on.  Larges and size 14's!!  They fit!  I have not been a size 14 since high school!  I even bought some new sandle heels to were just as soon as Texas heats up a bit.  It is wonderful to know that I can walk into almost any store now and find clothes to wear.

I was getting read for church yesterday and realized I have not hose and no slips that fit!  It has been a long time since I've shown any leg I guess!  Good problem to have for a change that things are too big!

I only lost 5 lbs in December, so I had to try something.  I'm doing two shakes and a bar a day.  As I've been able to eat more, I've been getting less protein I think.  I'm going back to more of the shakes and bars and less food.  Maybe not the best idea nutritionally, but right now it's all about the weight loss.  When I get all the weight off I can figure out what to eat to maintain.

hmmm.  I wouldn't say I look 100+, but I am sort of amazed by the stretch marks.  I guess they were filled with fat before and not as noticible? 

Thanks, I'll pick some up from the store next time I go out. I need some kind of help. I expected this to be a more common problem, but it looks like it's not from the response i got here.

I add Miralax to my drinks.  The All Bran drink mixes work well too.  The pink lemonade flavor is my favorite.
