interesting to put a YEAR in perspective....
lets see.... as far as I can remember... I lost & then gained the SAME 22 lbs in 2007... the GOOD news is that I have lost 5 of those lbs..... the bad news is last yr at this time I had lost 10....
ALSO.... VERY interesting.... I seem to be carrying ALOT more of that weight in my top 1/2..... (not waist but boobs!!!!!)... I have always gained in my thighs & butt..... so this is interesting (& any other girl would love it.... as I do not LOOK fat!!!! just larger in proportion!!!!!)
my dilemma.... my bd BRAS no longer fit (attractively!) not to mention any of my normal clothing... damn... 20 years ago, would have LOVED bigger top 1/2!!!!!
but I KNOW I will feel alot better LOSING the extra 12-15 lbs.... so THAT is what I MUST do (and MUST avoid the time/expense of purchasing/altering costumes as well.... have plenty of favorites just WAITING for me!)
so am hoping to revive this thread in the new year... (ok I am a month slow...but..) is anyone out there who wants to "commit" (or at least help hold me accountable????)
shoot.... even if we are all only 1-2 pounds less (those of us who need to be) 1/2009... that is a step in the right direction correct????
so maybe we can take it slowly/ monthly...
so by 3/1... I REALLY should lose 5 pounds.....
heavy sigh... so here I go....
any inspirational stories out there??? or just people in the same boat??? what are you all up to on this front??
