Topic: Are they making clothes bigger?

Ok so we all have thought about how the dryer is shrinking our clothing. I had a little role reversal last week. I was trying to find a pair of jeans that fit I blew through 3 sizes of jeans that I owned that I had worn and convinced myself that I couldn't possibly be smaller they were just making clothing sizes bigger. LOL LOL LOL It was with GREAT JOY that I discovered I am now a size 18 considering I had been a size 32 I will TAKE IT!

I do not like to become obsessed with the number on the scale I have been working out intensely at my physical therapy sessions and I am losing inches like crazy. I'm down 105 pounds and I have more energy, and I find myself doing everyday things that I haven't done in a long time without being exhausted and feeling like I am going to die. I do not regret not for one single moment that I chose this path. It has been a long journey and I'm far from done. But I am now training for my life...this summer I want to camp, hike, bike ride and kayak. I want to take trips to places I've never been and revel in everyday ordinary things.

The Journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step.....I'm so glad I started this one!

That's what I'm hoping for - the pre-planning taking all of the problems out of it!

I can't wait!! I love theater and we have tickets to Hamilton and Fun Home and I'm just about bouncing off the walls. Plus I'm excited to be able to fit into seats. My best friend is a size 2 and I'm a little nervous about all of the walking but she loves me and I know she won't judge me.

The scale seemed stuck for a few days and I was getting discouraged (I know! I know!). This weekend I had to clean out my closet and got rid of 5 bags of clothes that were too big. I didn't realize how wearing such baggy, loose things affected my mood. This morning when I put on the new smaller sizes, I felt better - more put together. And when I stepped on the scale today it decided to move! It was a win win all over the place!
