YES! Although not quite at my first real big goal (-200lb), it’s still pretty damn cool.
I’ve had to dig through my closet again to find jeans that fit. The jeans I was wearing at the start are just too big to even wear now (thank god). Right now I wear a pair of jeans that my big ole butt couldn’t squeeze into post-David as casual floppy wear around the house. Even had to roll up the pant legs, which is kinda cute and I might do with my other jeans. Jean capris! I’m down to fitting into skinny 18’s or regular 16’s with ease now. That elusive size 14 is something I haven’t worn since…2003? No, 2002, before I started working for Comcast back in the day. Catherine had just turned 3 years old and she’s 11 now O_O. If I can ever get into a 14, lord help me, I will completely lose my crap.
Still working out weekly: added the elliptical machine (god who created that torture device) and I’m up to 8 mins. Hey, that’s a lot for me. Walking at least 3-5 miles weekly. It’s getting nice here and I’m going to need to get one of those weird trailer thingies for David during the summer or I might not have time to exercise since I go when he’s in preschool.
I’m happy. Friggin deliriously happy. I feel great, sore, but great and my husband has finally noticed a difference in my body. He’s had only skype to see me on and the quality isn’t that great, but I recently posted a picture of me and even he could see the difference. So happy. Ultimately my goal is to take another 60lbs off, but I figure I’m almost halfway there. Anything else is icing.
