Another wow..on the same day!!
Aug 28, 2010
So, after my big walk today, I decided to go into town for a bit by myself. Doesn't happen all that often, as I usually have 4 kids in tow..and sometimes the hubby too! But I wanted to go to a particular consignment shop to see if I could find a couple things for Fall. I found a pair of size 20 gray cords and 4 blouses in size 2x. All my current clothes are 26, 24, 4x, and 3x blouses. I fiugred well I would have to lose a bit more. But in another month these things might fit me well enough to wear in public. I know the cords are a little stretchy, but I thought what the heck lets try them on and see how far off I am to fitting into them. OMG!!! They fit perfectly!!!!! Now let's hope they aren't too big by the time the weather is cool enough to wear them in public! I can see that this whole clothing thing is going to be interesting! So I tried on all the blouses and they fit also. Two of them I will be happier with when I lose about 10 more pounds though. I think I am going to have fun with the consignment and thrift store shopping for awhile. I know from my husband's experience, there's no point in buying anything full price in the next several months. So yay...a big shock that everything fit!Also, while I was out I bought some new nail polish and a couple makeup items. Just a small gift to myself for weighing in at 259 today! That means I have lost 30% of my excess weight. Each time I hit a new goal I am treating myself to something. The next goal will probably take awhile to reach and I plan to treat myself to something a little nicer...maybe a new hairstyle. Not sure yet. I bought myself a new Vera Bradley purse when I hit the 20% wt. loss goal.
Well, enough rambling. Back to my plan to not blog again until after my appt. on the 10th. :0)
