So far for me it's buying new clothes in NEW sizes!!! I finally broke down and bought new underwear (again!), new jeans, and a new jacket! I was soo excited! I even cried a little in the dressing room.
I started out in a size 24 jean. Now I'm a size 18! This is my prepregnancy pant size. I realize to most of you a size 18 is still fairly large, but for me it's actually a GOOD size! At my SKINNIEST I was only ever between a 12/14! Do you realize what this means??? 2 more sizes to go and I am GOLDEN! :)
I also went down two sizes in the... um... brazier? department as well! This was a moment to rejoice! I probably scared the lady in the stall next to me because I began jumping up and down while I attempted to muffle my shouts of joy. (I can't imagine that gave a very good impression...) But the ending result?!
A bomb looking mama! That's what!!
I also really love Winter/ Fall styles. I love the colors and LOVE the cuddly bundle look. So yes, my figure is hidden... but I know that it looks better underneath! :)ps. That's my man of five years in the two-shot. Isn't he cute? :)

um where did you get your coat? i want it!!!!!
A few years ago I picked up a size 16 pant off a clearance rack. It was professional looking but very much too small for me. And has been hiding in the other room closet ever since. Last week I tried it on because the rest of my pants won't stay up anymore (and I wear work pants - no belt loops). I won't say it fit, it was definitely snug through the waist, but with a sweater to cover the top part, it was at least wearable! Hooray! Now my goal is to make it loose, too!
That is a great part about losing, but an even greater part for me is watching my numbers come down: blood pressure, glucose, cholesterol, etc. etc. Now that's where the real good is happening. And did you know fat can actually hurt? As in cause pain? The fat on my liver does hurt. As I lose weight, that pain has gone away. Hooray for you to get it under control before all those number things get out of control!
oh yeah...and the best part about losing weight is when people start noticing...and giving you compliments. ya I'm shallow like that!!!
so good job, you are looking mighty fine my friend!
That is such a great feeling!!! And I am with you on the winter/Fall styles. They are my absolute favorite!! I just love how cozy it is to wear lots of layers!! Well, you look great!! Love the jacket! Love YOU!! :)
