Motivational Monday

First of all, I weighed in yesterday and lost 2.6 pounds. That brings my total weight loss to 35 pounds and I started right after Thanksgiving! I am so excited. I am legitimately seeing the changes in my body this time around. I also am not really craving the bad food or having the desire to cheat like I used to.

After reaching the big milestone at Weight Watchers, I decided that I wanted to go and try and reach one of my other big goals. In high school and college I bought all of my jeans at American Eagle. They fit more like Juniors clothes so with some weight gain towards the end of college I was unable to even fit in the largest size 18 of American Eagle jeans. I went to the store yesterday and felt uncomfortable that I was going to walk out as a failure!!!

Check the photo to the left for my happy moment!! The pants are not a size 18 or 16 but a 14!! I haven't been in a size that small in quite some time. I also didn't even need an Extra Large shirt, the large fit. I certainly need to continue to lose and work on my body but this was one big step in the right direction.

The smaller I get, the more fun shopping will be!
