The last month has been a strange one when it comes to my weight loss. This morning I got on the scale and I hit my PRE-Baby weight. (How much I weighed before I started having babies.) I only lost 5 pounds this month but I lost 2 pants size. So, as much as I love to see that number on the scale go down we all know that we LIVE for the number on the label in our jeans! A size 20 to a size 10 in 5 months. Not too shabby. I never would have tried on a size 10 pair of jeans except a friend of mine gave me a pair of size 10 Gap Long & Lean jeans in September. I took them and said thank you but inside I thought "I am NEVER going to be a size 10!" So I stashed them in the top of my closet and their they sat for the past 2 1/2 months. Last Sunday I was purging the next round of clothes out of my closet and I found those jeans and though "What the heck?" They fit!!! No muffin top or anything! They were the most comfy jeans I had ever put on!
As far as exercise goes there have been a few issues with that. 2 weeks ago it finally snowed enough to hit the cross country ski trails. Then it got cold. Very cold. I have not exercised in about 2 weeks and its starting to make me crabby!! And it looks like temperatures are not going to get any warmer either. :( I might have to get a gym membership. Yuck!
Tonight is Dr. Todd's annual Gala! My husband and I are going to get all dressed up! I'm excited to wear my size 10 dress! Hot pink too!! I'll post pictures tomorrow. It should be fun. His office has been collecting pictures of all his patience doing things they could not do before surgery so I sent a video of me skiing from last week.
Good luck to everyone as we venture into the season of over eating. My plan is to run the Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning to help battle the urge to eat too much. If I stick to the turkey I should be fine.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
