It's official - my continuing journey is yielding some encouraging results. My "fat jeans" - the size 14s - are baggy enough to be uncomfortable, because I have to keep pulling them up. I even ripped one of the belt loops on one side, from constantly grabbing my pants and yanking them up!
My black jeans - the ones that were supposed to be fat jeans but shrunk a size - fit well, with no need to suck in my tummy before zipping!
I won't make my goal of 40 pounds off before my birthday, but it's really ok. Part of this process is also not to get discouraged because it's not happening fast enough, or you don't see the results on the scale. I've only lost 10 pounds, but my body is redistributing the fat and muscle as I work at it. My face no longer looks like I swallowed a puffer fish, and my clothes are a lot easier to wear.
So I take the small victories as inspiration, and do some more aerobic dance with my 4 year old.
Here's to health!
