hey, we don't have this already do we? I've never started a thread before... i am really growing!!
anyway, i've lost a little over a 1/2 inch from each arm... this is good considering my arms are the thing i really want to reduce. yay! (i am editing this post bc i forgot to say that i lost this in about 3 weeks)
anyone else? are you running further? are your pants so big, they are falling down, making people point and laugh?
i've lost 18 3/4 total inches (from my hips, waist, arms, bust and thighs) since december 2nd. ive probably only went down one size... from 16 to 14. BUT i have inspired two people, my mom and a good friend sarah to get healthy and workout!!! so i think that may be better than any weight loss... we'll all be healthy together
Great thread idea! I've noticed with losing weight so far, that watching clothing changes & keeping track of inches are really important - because, since we see ourselves in the mirror every day, it's really hard to "see" the progress.
I can now fit comfortably into a pair of jeans I haven't worn in over 3 years - and I am oh so happy about that! I never tossed the clothes I grew out of because I told myself I will loose the weight & one day be able to wear them again. Another 5-10 pounds more & they should fit just perfect (I've got a little too much junk in the trunk right now!).
So, if you have that little back dress in the closet you've been dying to fit back into- hold on to it!!! You WILL get back into it!!!
Hmm...well I bought a pair of designer jeans at the beginning of the summer because i could *finally* fit into them as a reward for losing all that weight...and now they are getting loose! I can't wait until I can buy an even smaller size!!
AIMES! that is great! lol.. i know that feeling oh too well. I suppose I could include giving my mother all my FAT pants! he he... sorry evil Tiffany came out there.. However I have bought another pair of circulation restricting jeans, now when those babies become loose and not from being stretched, i will be on ecstatic girl.
I'm having to really use my math skills to calculate what my milage is on the treadmill now, because I was so used to 6 mph being so easy to calculate - now I'm running more in the realm of 9:20-9:38 miles. I can appreciate that!
that's awesome jen! i had another NSV yesterday...i did a lab with my students yesterday involving cookies....and it didn't even occur to me to eat one! I made it all day surrounded by the yummy treats without giving in. yay!
The past two nights I have been up late studying, and I had healthy snacks with my coffee instead of cookies!! i've always had a hard time not eating a ton of junk when i am up late doing work, so this is a great victory for me!
