I'm not even sure whether to post this as an NSV or a question because I'm not sure it's even possible.
OK, so, thanks to 3FC I've been able to get past using numbers on the scale (well, except for that whiny little "I'm stalled" post a week or so ago
) as the sole guage of my progress but I'll start by saying it finally limped down a whole lb after 3 weeks. HOWEVER, I'm sitting here today wearing a pair of jeans that 2 weeks ago I wouldn't wear (they are that thin, stretchy kind of denim that actually accentuates every butt dimple if they are even remotely "fitted") because they were still too tight - and today they are loose! Bordering on droopy in the patootie! I am already a size smaller than I started out but yesterday I was actually in the ladies room double checking the size label because the pants I was wearing seemed so loose I thought I'd grabbed one of the old pair. Is this for real? I mean can a little exercise make this
huge a difference in the way clothes fit when the scale is only registering a pound gone? That first size didn't change until the scale registered almost 20. And when I say "a little" exercise I mean, compared to a lot of you, my workout routine is not all that intense. Gotta say though, I've come a long way in a pretty short time - When I started in January it was all I could do to lumber, gasp, and huff my way through 15 minutes 3 times a week and now I've worked my way up to 35 to 40 minutes 6 times a week - body weight exercises 3 days and dance video workouts for cardio on alternating days (yay me) Seventh day is for house and yardwork - that's exercise enough in itself
Am I imagining things? I just keep expecting to feel these pants starting to constrict any minute now.
