You may now say pants... :-)

OK crisis is over. Whew that was a hard one!  I spend Sunday and Monday going around to Goodwill, Savers, and Agrace Thrift store. By far one of the best shopping experiences I have had in a long time. Not only did I get pants I got some cute shirts and a few dresses. I have to say getting cloths that actually fit you makes a difference. I feel better about myself and my confidence is boosted. Not to mention it's not hiding the fact that I had lost weight.

I would be fibbing if I didn't say I had frustrating days. I have been stuck at about 60lbs. I know I am happy about it but I would like to keep going forward. But it's not going to stop me. This is a long term life change. I love going to the gym though. OH THE GYM... so I must tell you...

I went to the gym last Thursday night and took my first class. I did a Ugi ball class... oh my word... I found out I had muscles in places I didn't know I had them. Lisa kicked my bum. I loved every minute of it. It was challenging and something I very much needed. I felt good about myself as I was keeping up for the most part with women that were half my size. Not that I try to compare myself. It made me feel so much better being able to do it and not giving up.

Back to the cloths. I am sure you are wondering what do they look like can we see them... well I am glad you asked.  More to come when I wear them and can get some pictures! Thank you all for the encouragement and love!
I like this outfit!

Amazing purple dress!

Do not say the word PANTS.....

OK... I know I should be happy about this but for real... I can't fit into pretty much none of my pants right. Although a good problem to have it's still a problem. I realized in my mad search for some pants/slacks/jeans that fit that none of them do. I only for some reason have two or three of the next size down which are all in need of some major repair. The ones I have are making due in a pinch but I don't like looking like a grub! So all in all it's still frustrating. I also realized in looking at the close I have how fast I flew into the size I was in. It's like there was no in between. So what do I do... I need to get some pants. I wanted to not and just go with what i had until i reached my goal but that is looking like it's not going to happen. I will update more later I just needed to rant a little bit... grrr....
