Enjoying the Progress
May 2, 2009
183.5 lbs.
I am .5 lb. away from 30 lbs total weight loss. I am 1.5 lbs. away from my Cinco de Mayo goal of losing 15 lbs.
I am just so...happy. Everywhere I go, I am getting compliments:thumbup:
In the past, I was always chasing the next number. When I was a size 14, I wasn't satisfied until I got down to a size 12. When I was a size 12, I wasn't satisfied until I got down to a size 10 and so on and so forth.
This time, I am enjoying the progress. I am in a size 12 and I feel good because I am not in a size 16/18 anymore. When I try on a size 10 that doesn't work, I just say someday and wear the size 12. Recently I tried on a shirt and the only size they had left was medium. Because my large shirts were getting spacious, I figured there was a slight chance that I could wear a medium. However, when I discovered that I couldn't because it was too tight, I didn't become discouraged as I would have in the past. I just found me a large blouse that I could wear and thanked God that I didn't have to buy an extra large.
So...yes, I am enjoying the progress. I am learning to be thankful for right now. I know that I am not where I want to be, but I thank God I am not where I used to be!
