I just wanted to thank the ladies who made comments on my last blog. I don't know you, but you keep me inspired and motivated!! Thank you!
This week I had some success that I wanted to willingly share with you! I'm going to put my numbers out there...brace yourselves! I started this year off at 218 pounds, a size 16 slowly creeping into an 18. In February, I really started putting my shoulder to the wheel, as you know from my last post. I am blindingly excited to announce that today I am 175 pounds...but that isn't the best part! I went to California in March and was excited that I fit into a size 14 jeans with no problem. I've been wearing those jeans still, lamenting to my husband on a daily basis, "I just don't see or feel any difference."
Tonight, I went to Costco with my family. I found some really cute Calvin Klein jeans and I thought, I'll buy the size 10 and hang it on my door for motivation. When I got home, I thought, I'll just try on the jeans to see how much further I have to go. One leg in, no problem. Second leg on...little tighter. Zipped and buttoned?? WHAT?? Yes! I fit into a size 10!! That may not mean a heck of a lot to some, but I KNOW there are ladies out there who GET me!! I am on cloud 9! I seriously looked at myself in the mirror for 15 minutes. I couldn't believe it. And now? I can't believe I'm posting a photo, but I'm just so proud and I sincerely hope this tells everyone: if I can do it, YOU CAN DO IT TOO!!!
Best wishes and good health!

Holy crap, girl! You look awesome/incredible/THIN/gorgeous!
I have been struggling with not seeing results in my size (although I feel much more in shape and healthy), and you seriously give me hope.
I'm totally celebrating with you! And believe me, when (not if) I get to a size ten, the whole freaking world will know about it :)
