I am becoming proud of me……

The other morning when I got dressed to go to work, I was like these capris are loose. As the day went on I kept pulling them up. Well as I now have 3 hrs. to find something to do inbetween bus runs, we went to the thrift store. I bought a size 20 shorts and a pair of skorts( my capris were a size 22) and the 20’s fit great. I started this journey wearing  a size 28. I have those jeans I wore when I started hanging on the inside of my bedroom door as a reminder that I am never going to wear them again. I don’t think I have worn a 20 in going on since before my first son was born and he will be 28 this year. I actually looked in the mirror this morning and I am beginging to like what I see. I am getting a figure. Wow, I am still amazed when I see this. I went back yesterday and bought me 2 pair of size 20 jeans too!

I have also been becoming bored with food. It is hard giving up favorites. I have been trying to work on lower fat, lower calorie versions of some of my favorites. I will post some when I get a chance. I have been doing an extra run in the afternoons for the past couple days so it has cut into my computer time.

I hope everyone is having a great week!

HUGS!
