I posted my weight early for this week because quite frankly, I haven't been in the mood to come on here and since I'm here today, I probably won't post tomorrow. The weight loss is strange. All week I've been up and down with the weight, convinced that I've not lost a pound. Then I get on the scale this morning and when I posted in here, realized that I lost 2 lbs this week?!?! Strange to say the least since it felt like the scale has been having the same numbers for the past week. I cannot explain it but was thrilled to see 161 this morning! So close to the 50s, that I can taste it! Whew!
I'm on my March break this week and started off on Saturday by walking to a mall at the other end of the city. I mapquested it and it was a 3.5 mile walk each way - and yes, I walked there and walked home! Felt pretty sore afterward though since I usually do 3 miles on the treadmill.
We are currently having a nice warm spell and it made me think of switching over my closet to my Spring clothes. Well, I could've cried. I kind of counted on wearing my Fall clothes for Spring but they are SO huge now. I cannot get away with it and realized that I *need* clothes so desperately. I went to Walmart and bought some t-shirts for $8 each and a nice pair of beige linen pants for $19.98. Then hubby realized that he'd paid my Sears card bill TWICE and that I actually had a credit of $166 there! Whew! Once I found that out, I *knew* Sears would be great for me to go to. They had major sales on too and so I got some great new shirts there too. I bought 11 shirts there and two new bras for $200. I thought that was pretty darn good. I bought some plainish t-shirts that I can dress up with dress pants for work and I bought some Adidas shirts too and a Boca one that were all on sale!
Here's where I stand on my sizes these days.
From 288 lbs to 161 Today. That is 127 lbs lost. 21 to go!
Shirts: I have gone from a size 26 (4X) to a solid LARGE
Underwear: now a regular XL
Bra size: 46/48 DD to 38B (yes the gals are deflating)
Pants: I have gone from 46 to 14 or 12.
Ring size: 9 1/4 to a regular size 7.
Shoes: Size 9 to 8 1/2
