I went to the salon I get my eyebrows done at and discovered that I've reached 120!
It was a real treat to step on the scale and see the number, because last night I PIGGED out at my friend's house...she cooked an amazing ethnic dish that was delish and baked a chocolate cake for my sis's birthday. It seems like every time I go to her house I cave in and jump off the deep end. It's something I'm working on...*lol*
But anyway...my concern now is to stop losing weight (I definatly don't want to go any lower), but at the same time, not to gain weight again.
I've discovered that being at the number you've idolized for so long doesn't necessarily mean you get the amazing body you dreamed about. My calves & thighs are still big enough to make me balk at the idea of wearing a skirt...even though they are smaller then they used to be. I still have little reservoirs of fat at the crease of my armpit that stick out when I wear tank tops. I know that I will be able to work on both with toning, but some curses just never go away, I guess. There are two body types in my family: naturally small and slim, and normal with slightly heavier bottom halves. I'm in the latter one.
The two areas I lost weight on that bother me are my butt (it's so small now!), and my breasts. I went from a 36B to a 34B, so I literally have to go bra shopping again because my old bras are all too big and they don't offer any support.
About the not losing/not gaining....if anyone has any advice, I'd really appreciate it!
Yay, me!!
I'm here!
But don't be surprised if your body keeps changing even though your weight stays exactly the same. Exercise - especially weights - can totally reshape your body and make you smaller and tigher. I think Mel dropped two pants sizes without losing any weight once she started lifting heavy.
