This morning I decided to pull out a pair of size 11/12 jeans that 8 months ago I couldn't zip let alone button up cause of the huge belly roll. 2months ago I tried the same jeans on and was excited that they fit but they were a bit too snug for me to be comfortable so I put them away (I HATE belly rolls hanging out over my jeans) This morning when I stuck them on they zipped and buttoned with no effort at all and there is little to no roll over them !!!! YAY YAY YAY So I next pulled out a few shirts that were almost garbage 8mo ago as I knew I would NEVER fit in them again and hadn't worn them since before I got pg with Kaeden. They still aren't something I would wear in public quite yet, however they fit and look decent if I suck my gut in!!!!!! YAY YAY YAY They are kinda going out of style, but let me tell you when I can fit into them perfectly I'm gonna be one out of style happy to be in my "Skinny clothes" momma LOL
To top off my joy of fitting into my clothes, I was dropping my son off at preschool this morning and one of the Moms who I see regularly at MOPS (she is in my group so we see eachother every other week there) and I see her 2-3 times a week at preschool, she looks at me and says have you lost weight because you're looking really skinny lately!!!! YAY YAY YAY YAY~!~ I swear it's almost like people are afraid to ask me if I have lost weight since I've started this journey and when someone notices I am beyond ecstatic. It's such a wonderful feeling.
Much better then the last time I was feeling so wonderful about myself. I'll never forget the first time I got excited about my weightloss... I had lost 10lbs and was able to squish into a pair of pants that were practically unwearable before. Sure they were a tad tight, and the shirt was a 2x but it was REAL clothes rather then sweats and a sweatshirt as I had worn for the past few years. So I went into public that day feeling like a million bucks. Stopped to get the staple removed from Kaeden's head and while at the Dr office ran into my stepdaughters old babysitter and we started chatting. Next thing I know she pats my belly and says another one???? I wanted to absolutely die :( :( :( My wonderful happy feelings were quickly replaced with horrible fat ones :( I think today was one of the first days I've allowed myself to feel like I was accomplishing something and I got a positive response out of nowhere and it just made my day :)
Ok enough of my novel, time to end this :)
