So I've been at this for over a month now and I'm down 14lbs! I really hadn't been noticing it in the mirror or in my clothes yet. to be honest I was getting a little upset thinking id have to lose ~25lbs before I noticed anything. on top of that I've been so busy this week I haven't been ble to exersize (but I haven't been sitting on my butt either).

even though I haven't been exercising I've kept to my diet and I still lost 2lbs! yay!

well, this morning after showering I eyeballed a pair of jeans I hung up in my bathroom 3 months ago. I eyed them hatefully. they use to fit them suddenly I couldnt get them on even it I laid down and sucked in - it wasn't even close. I kept trying them on, blaming pms and bloating when the reality was I gained a lot of weight...

anyway. there I was eyeballing these evil jeans and I finally snatched them down and tried them again. they fit !!! I didn't even have to lay down, lol. that felt GREAT!

for my second NSV, I went to TJMaxx to look around and found this piece of clothing I really liked. And I really liked it on *me*. i bought it and its somethinh that ill be able to wear even when i lose weight, so thats great! it's probably been years since I genuinely liked any clothing I bought.

I had a good day !

It feels great, doesn't it?

That's awesome! Congrats!!!

I know about the clothing thing, mostly worried about all tops being long enough to cover the belly and looking nice wasn't a factor. It's important I think to have a few things that make us feel good when we put them on, and to **** with the fact that they might look too big in the near future. I even pick up stuff at resale and thrift stores that are a little too small, I am one of those that if I am wearing something too big, I feel skinny and less motivated.

That's great! I can't wait till I can go shopping in my closet!
