Long Time No See

I can't believe it's been 5 months since I've last updated this blog!

After August I really got off track and didn't follow the "rules", so basically I got stuck on purpose and ate mostly what I wanted to, but I stayed in the low- to mid-180s.

After the new year, I knew I had to get to goal in 2016, so I am back on track and concentrating on my protein, water, but especially my exercising -- mostly walking!

As of yesterday, I'm 179.8 lbs. and I was able to wear a size 8 pair of jeans to work (comfortably!) and felt GREAT!

Last weekend I actually purchased a size 6 (GASP!) jeans because I tried them on in a size 10 and LOVED them so much, I couldn't find a size 8 to buy, but they had the 6, so I said "what the hell!" I may as well buy them - you never know!

Well, as I do with most things I buy that don't fit me yet, I have to try it on to feel/see how it fits and what's crazy is that I was able to pull them right on and zip them up!!!!!  Maybe they're mislabeled?  LOL.

Today is going to be a fun day for me -- I am getting some boudoir photographs taken!  I would have NEVER felt comfortable enough to wear skimpy clothes in a photo at 250 lbs!

Mark my words -- I will hit my goal this year of 150-160 lbs.  Yay!

Update

So it's been a couple months.  I have made it down to 179.2 but then vacation happened and I ate donuts (and then breakfast) every morning.  LOL.... so I put on a few pounds and trying to get it back off, but I haven't weighed daily like I normally do. I think my last weight was 182 this morning.

I'm trying to not be obsessed, but more about the fit of my clothes.  I am getting more and more out of 12s and those size 31 Miss Me jeans I bought like two years ago -- I finally wore them to work last Friday!  I probably should've waited a "few more pounds" lost to wear them, but whatever.
