Woohoo! Good for you! xx
 
Joined a gym today!
 
I had to get fitted for a new bra today as my hubby pointed out I'd gone a bit droopy (thanks darling!!) so turns out I've gone down 2" and almost 2 cup sizes. So fitted and sorted and no longer drooping!!!

i had a very similar conversation with my oh not so long ago, thank goodness for wonderbra
 
Went to buy running tights today and the girl said "oh i can't imagine you could be any bigger than a size 14" little does she know Lol made my day !

Get you!!! Running tights! OMG I'm really proud of how far I've come on C25K but TIGHTS? I've always had thunder-thighs, even when I was slim, so it's tracky bottoms all the way for me!

But it is a funny feeling to realise that how different you appear to others! I felt kind of anonymous yesterday in town, I guess I'm now accepting that people did use to stare at the fat lady puffing along the street!

Woooooo!!! Well done everyone!!! :-D So pleased for you all. I saw a friend of mine I haven't seen since I've started and she said 'wow, you look so skinny!' SOO HAPPY. And..... to top it off I weigh less than her now. 3lb less but it's still less. That hasn't happened since we were about 14.

Also, I have boney collarbones :D Xxxxx
 
I was feeling a bit disappointed after my 2lbs only loss at weigh-in but was bucked up by finding an old Slimming World booklet from 5 years ago showing my starting weight as 18 stone 11 lbs - not far off that now - but also my measurements for bust waist and hips were the same as they are now - YAY! And the best bit of all is that now I'm on LT the weight and measurements will be going down all the faster!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Slow week - only 2lb down this week (the chemist reckoned it was only one, but I go by my own scales. They're bloomin useless sods anyway - 2nd week on the trot they've not had my shakes in on time so I have to go back tomorrow!)

Anyway, I've started a "Before and After" album. Technically, at the moment, it should be "before and half-way through" (I'm more than half-way now, but these are photos from last month...)

That's cheered me up! :)
