I hear you on the thunder thigh issue. If the pant legs fit, then the waist is too big. If the waist is perfect I have a hard time getting the pants over my thunder thighs. Oy!
You are a beautiful butterfly and it has been a joy watching you grow (smaller that is) and bloom.

omg...you are so right...my dh had mentioned several times, how many tank tops do you even own!! i would order top but the sleeves would be too tight and the boob area like niagra on me and then be tight around the hips!! OY!!! so ribbed tank tops work perfect!! If i am cold, i layer with a denim button up shirt that i wear unbuttoned!! Originally Posted by Halfagain

Or if I found something that fit, I'd by two or three of the same thing (different colors) so I didn't have to shop for anything else.
i live in tank tops most of the time. ribbed tank tops and elastic waist sweats or pants. it was nice buying a pretty top for a change!! now that is 2 new things, my dress, and this jeans outfit!! woohoo!!!

I have the opposit problem...it's my tummy that is out of proportion (apple shape). To get pants to fit in the waist, the butt area is too baggy. Hopefully for all of us, things will even out the way it's supposed to and we will all look fabulous!
My scales have been going up/down by 2 lbs for over a week, but can't seem to get below 145.4. (I've always been a daily weigher, and don't get freaked out by the up/down trends.) Think I've had trouble getting back into the swing of my routine (measuring, timing) since my trip & son's wedding. I've also been really hungry lately, and having serious cravings. Am re-committing right here & now to get back to basics and shed these last 10 lbs! Was hoping to do so by Thanksgiving, but looks like it will take a little longer.
ok greeniris...we can make a pact....how about starting tomorrow morning, we do 5 days in the LIFEBOAT!! 5 perfect days, not one lick or taste of anything not on plan?? i will if you will!!!Originally Posted by greeniris

thank you for the compliment. the word beautiful and rainbow (susan) doesn't usually happen together. growing up my mom always, ALWAYS, said she had 2 daughters, the pretty one (my sister) and the intelligent one( me). as a result i have always felt ugly....but smart!!

My son is going to help me w my pictures so y'all can see me smile at you pretty soon. Today is WI so I'm going to get ready and keep fingers crossed that my loss is good, could be ifie, Tom is here, but last week was a tiny one so its time for a biggie, but I'll take whatever as long as its going down. Anyway I'll be back with the news shortly, tah tah for now chicks. Teena
woohoo can't wait for you to get your photo up!! i so dislike my photo being taken!! i have always been the one whose face is all you see, hiding at the back of photos, pulling all the kids in front of me. so many of you lovely ladies have truly inspired me to be brave and take photos. what i can NOT see in the mirror, shows up in a photo!! DH took that photo after he came home from work yesterday and when i uploaded them, i was like, wow, that outfit looks pretty good, look at that top its pretty...and my dh said, no susan, its YOU who is pretty! he made me cry happy tears!! he is not one with overflowing compliments but he does have his moments.
good luck on your weigh in!! woot woot!! you can do it!
