Changes!

These are some changes I have noticed in the past week or so

On 1/11/11: On 1/4/10 I was sportin’ a size 22 skirt. Probably should have been a 24 but I refused to buy one. So I kept the 22 and wore looong shirts (PTL for hoodie season!) to cover the fact that the zipper wouldn’t stay up. Yesterday I tried on a 16 AND ZIPPED IT UP. I seriously can not WOO HOO loud enough!!!!!!!!

On 1/12/11 Woot Woot!!! So I have these red dress shoes and I needed a a sweater to go with. We were at the resale shop and I found one!!!! “Cept it was a **L**. I got it anyhow thinking I would eventually shrink into it. So I had myself all talked into the fact that it wouldn’t fit and well IT DID!!!!! I get to wear my red shoes today!

1/18/11: Well H.E.L.L.O. size 14 shirt!!!

A Change…..in Running!!

pjsweightloss — Fri, 13 Aug 2010 14:42:14 +0000

So you remember the my “story” my sad story of running

Back in March when I started I could barely run for 60 seconds. Barely and when I even got close it just wasn’t pleasant!!

The other day I ran 3 miles. The whole thing with no walking or stopping to catch my breathe. Last night I decided to run “just” 2 and could not believe how easy it was!!! Now it was slow. I’m not winning any races here. BUT I am finishing. And can’t believe I am saying this but…….it was pleasant!!!!

YAY for progress!!!!!!

Last Night.

So last night I sat with my arms crossed and noticed a little muscle in my arm

Yep it made my evening.

We have 2 brown sweat shirts. Carhartt for Hubby and Nike for me. The other day I grabbed a brown sweatshirt to head to a dr appt. While at the appt I noticed that I had on the Carhartt. Yay!!! I tried that on before the weight loss and it was tight!!! This time I didn’t even notice it wasn’t mine!!!!!
