Ooh! I have one again finally. I went to a cardio class with a roommate today. We had an instructor who I've never seen before, and I did the whole workout thinking that it was really lame and not a good workout at all... I mentioned it to my roommate afterwards and she was like "Really? I thought I was going to die! It was so tough!"

I've got 50lbs on her but I can survive a cardio class easier! I must be getting muscle or cardio capabilities or something... :D Just goes to show size is NOT everything!

Britomart - hehehe... that is a great one. :) I die during cardio. My heartrate shoots up to 185+ in a matter of minutes.


Today i fit into my pants without stretching them after they came out of the dryer!

ooooh that's a good one too. i have one pair of pants that aren't uncomfortable straight out of the dryer, but they were big for me to begin with... I guess that doesn't count! :dizzy:

ok, not sure if this is an NSV or not.

i can take off my jeans without unzipping them.

just undo the top button and off the come. WTF? not sure if i have just stretched them beyond their boundaries or if they are actually too big now. granted i buy clothes that are looser than tighter so that may be the reason.

:?:

i find it very hard to recognize non-scale victories. i really should start paying attention to things other than that silly number the scale says.

yesterday i walked to the library. that's 45 minutes there and 45 minutes back. oh, and did i mention that i had a 28 pound baby strapped to my back?

I can wear baby doll t-shirts now! I fit perfectly into the XLs instead of stuffing myself in and trying to convince myself that if I stretch it a bit it'll be just fine and then never wearing them because I can't bear to leave the house in something so skintight.

This morning started out on the right foot. I received a call from my FIL for my husband, but he stated to me that when he saw me on Sunday, it looks like I've dropped some weight. No one else knows that I've been trying to drop some poundage except my husband. I've been going at it for three weeks solid now and people are starting to notice (even though I can't)! Yeah!! Too bad the rest of the day was poo, but having him say that to me put a spring in my step this morning.

I have one!!!

I've gone from a size 12 to a size 8, which is what I was in highschool, and the other day I actually tried on a size 6 and it fit!!!

~jess~

I ran three miles monday, then I did it again on Wednesday-I'm very proud, I have never considered myself a runner/jogger...but I think I might be now.

I think I need more convincing...here I come 5 miles!

Also, I've been shopping so much lately, and enjoying it! I can fit in almost everything...it's nice to be in normal stores with avg. sizes again.

This morning (it felt like the middle of the night!) I went to perkins to study for a monster exam. I usually get diet pop, 3 pc of french toast and 2 pieces of bacon (I need food to keep myself awake!) And this morning, I only had water, a fruit cup, and a little less than 1.5 pc of french toast...no bacon, no pop!
I was super tired, but stuffed with even that. I just had "lunch" at 2:30, and I wasn't even that hungry...

I love this post!

I now get to use the 5th belt hole in instead of the 4th. I love it when this happens.:) And i started running on the treadmill, which for some reason i always thought i couldn't do because of that "your to fat to run" little voice in my head that i finally proved wrong

My scale has been dissing me and showing me the same number every morning...and last night I came across my measurements from when I started getting more dedicated to working out and dieting. I started on 02.23.06 and have accomplished the following:

body fat: lost 2.7 % or 5 lbs

bust: gained .5 inches

hip/butt: lost 1.25 inches

thigh: stayed the same (boo I hate my thighs)

calf: gained .25 inches

waist: lost 2 inches...woooohoooo

I had forgotten all about measurements and how sometimes they tell the story of the hard work you've been putting in even if your scale is dissing you.
