For nine days my weight was the same. Bah! I got a "Buck Shot" (a vitamin shot) to help improve metabolism and either that or something else kicked in and I started losing weight again. I am now officially down almost 20 whole pounds. That is two bowling balls for those of you keeping track at home.
I have noticed that there are a lot of things I can do now that I couldn't two bowling balls ago. Here is the current list:
- touch my toes
- wear two pairs of jeans that did not even button one month ago
- be up and around all through the evening, no watching TV because of excessive exhaustion
- refute a new shirt because I didn't like it and not because it didn't fit
- cross my legs without having to anchor the crossed foot on the pew in front of me
- kneel and sit on my feet
- put on a size 16 dress AND have it fit
- go up and down stairs with ease
- buy clothes in the Misses section
- wear my CTR ring
- wear a size 11 shoe (even my feet were chubby and I bought 12s before school started)
- take a picture with a double chin rather than the triple chin
I have to admit that it feels pretty awesome and I am looking forward to losing more weight. Yesterday was the "Shop for a Cause" day at Macy's; that means that everything is an additional 20% off. Penny and I look forward to it each year and go to multiple Macy's stores to maximize our finds. I found three dresses that were adorable, but I bought one size smaller than I would currently wear. And not because they didn't have my size, although they did, but because they will fit in a few short weeks. Keep your eyes peeled for the new red dress!
Today I am wearing the same dress from my "before" picture. It is quite looser. But you tell me what you think.
