What These New Jeans Are Sayin…

Posted by: delitaagain In: New Me

So I got my new size smaller Levi’s and…

[DRUMROLLLLLLLLLLLLL]

They are PERfect!

A teeny snug in the waist but not snug in the hips and thighs, not loose either. Perfect. Now if I’ll just get away from wheat my waist will drop 2-3 inches in a week and if I’ll stick with the working out, I may be able to get another new smaller pair someday. What a way to go!

5 months after starting this  blog I headed to Colorado and left my new skinny Levi’s (from ebay) at home because they were just too tight. And, they were a size larger than these! WooHOO!

I haven’t worn jeans this size since 1995!!

Definite progress. Next good news: I’m headed off to join a gym here in a few minutes. My Army son is also a certified level one for CrossFit and is sending me workouts by email. Just decided to check in with all *youse* guys first. =)

Been Shopping Ebay!

Posted by: delitaagain In: New Me

First time in about four years. Had to adjust all my saved searches down 2 sizes. =D Will get back with pics once I figure out how to upload again… Buying 18w and 1x of which I have very few.

Also today is the day I start back on CrossFit again. First goal: to get to where I *can* do more. My Army son is now a certified CrossFit trainer and will be helping me by LDR.

Also, bought a computer! I’ve been running on borrowed computers since before starting this blog. This should really help! God is good!

Play along: what is your next goal?

The Meaning of Jeans

Posted by: delitaagain In: New Me

So I was trying to figure out a way to track progress without weighing or measuring (back several months). Now my “skinny jeans” are baggy. Problem solved. Another phone update to keep the place going…

Truth Is

Posted by: delitaagain In: New Me

Birthday yesterday (big 6-0) and  realized I’m hanging about 50 pounds or a smidge below my top weight. Not great, but, I’m grateful for it. Could be back up there, or more.

My top weight was double my goal weight: 300 and 150. So this isn’t my dream but it sure beats where I could be. And, my food isn’t where it should be but also isn’t where it could be.

See? Gratitude. The Atitude du Jour. Very happy about that and God is soooooo good to me.

Play along: Faithful friends, what are you grateful for today?
