Congrats, Cristalian!
I know what you mean by good, not great. I am almost to 50 down, only down one size in clothes, and still have a way to go. Being 50 lbs lighter, I don't feel as different as I thought Imwould. So, I try to remind myself of the things that have changed -like my knees don't hurt on the stairs anymore. the little things are keeping me motivated until my body shows more change.
Yup that exactly how i feel.
I have less pain in my foot (had orthopedic reconstruction 5years ago) now then when i was 50 lbs heavier. I too am down like one size in clothes, yay for us for being down 50!!!
woo Hoo
I hit 50 this week too, and it feels great to say that number, but I still have a ways to go....keep it up. You will get there.
Congrats!!! Feel go to say 50 eh?? Like we lost 50 freaking pounds!!! Thanks for the encuragment and i hqve a far way to go... Currently my goal is to get the heck out of the 200's, 199 will be a very happy day for me, i have alwsys been a big girl. I honestly think i havnt seen the 100's since like Junior High... But with IP, i will hopefully make it there by the summmer.. 70 lbs to get me there
Got there! Down 51.2 as of today's WI! Going to savor this number for a bit before I re-enter real life, where I still have to feed the kids dinner and supervise homework.
For a long time I fantasized that if only I could lose the weight, my life would be different. Now that the weight is coming off, I have to keep my expectations realistic. Living with teenagers is not magically easier at this weight, but at least I have more energy to deal with the shenanigans!
