Great advice, Donna!
Looking at your tracker, I'm thinking that you will easily lose all your weight by the end of the 100 days, if not before.
Have you been clothes shopping at all? You know, when you try stuff on that probably won't fit ... but they do!
Have you found it difficult to reconcile your weightloss with your size, that is, do you think you're bigger than you are?
Do you look at people and wonder "am I bigger or smaller than them?" and not know because the picture you have of yourself is not realistic?
Twenty questions or what!
Oooh, I do hope that I will lose all my weight by the end of the 100 days, that would be fantastic!! We are going to Newquay this July so I am hoping, hoping that I will be in management for sometime before we fly out there! I am SO excited about it. The thought of me being slimmer and looking good in photos motivates me!
There are very few photos of myself with my little daughter and she is two - I have been hiding away because of my weight....! That is why I am so looking forward to our holiday!
Yeah, I went to H&M the other week to buy a shirt and pants that will stay with me as I lose pounds. They are a size smaller and they fit me now! I took out a few of the clothes that I wore before pregnancy and to my delight, they fit me! There is a pair of new capri pants that I had never wore before because it couldn't fit me and I can wear it now!! Woohoo! This feels damn good!!
I have been looking in NEXT catalogue for clothes to wear this summer and was so tempted to order a few but thought I'd leave it until I reach my target weight. I still have some clothes in size 14/16 in my wardrobe and they are lovely, so I shall be wearing them again. I doubt I'll be size 12 anyway because of my height and shape. I know my shape will not be the same as before due to pregnancy.
I have to admit, I still look and feel bigger than I really am. My colleagues were saying the other week that I have lost "a lot of weight". I was like "a lot of weight"? I didn't feel like it at all. I still wear the same bigger clothes! But now I am wearing smaller clothes which is great. I am not exactly sure what my size really is because of my jelly belly which is getting in the way when trying on new clothes!
I have some size 20 blouses in my wardrobe from prepregnancy days and they fit me, albiet loosely! When I started LL, I was size 24 (tops) and size 26 (pants).
It is funny, I did look at people and wonder if I was bigger or smaller than them. I was walking today and saw a big girl - she does not look very large but her thighs and legs were quite chunky (she was wearing trousers) and I looked at mine in my tracksuit bottoms and wondered if they are slimmer than hers! But she dressed nicely and walked with confidence whereas I am so self conscious of my appearance!
