I know, I know, we're doing this for ourselves.
Absolutely we are. I will feel... 100 times more fantastic when I've lost the weight that I want to lose. We ARE doing this for ourselves.
But I don't think it's necessary to pretend like PART of us isn't doing it because we want our man to feel proud and boastful and superior by having a gorgeous chica like us on his arm... and the more I feel like my man thinks that, the better I feel about myself.
Thankfully, I met my guy when I was about a mediocre weight (155ish?) so the fact that I was 163 for a bit was barely noticeable to him... but remembering what it was like to be 138 lbs...
I know I can look better, and I want to!

I think you'll probably hit a point where you start going down in sizes, and people will start taking notice all of a sudden. And I bet you anything that they will TAKE NOTICE until your ears fall off with the compliments.
Keep on truckin' baby.
And totally post that Rachel Ray thinger.
