Today I got on the scale and weighed 252. I'm thrilled.
Yesterday I went shopping with my daughter and for the first time in 20 years, I was able to go into a regular store and buy clothes! I use to wear a size 30/32. When I went to try on pants, which I needed desperately, I started with a 28. Nope. 26. Nope. 24. Nope! I am down to a size 22. I have not been a size 22 for a LONG time. Before the pants shopping, I decided to go into my favorite bra shop and get measured. I was down 1 band size and 2 cup sizes! Yea! I am really BIG on top and am thrilled to lose some of that booby area. Then I went next door to the plus size store I have shopped at for years and was able to buy a 1x pullover shirt. Again, yea! So, after this shopping expedition, where I was able to buy a few things at Dillards and CJ Banks I realized I don't ever have to go back to ****** plus size store again.
I am having a hard time catching my brain up to my body. I still have so much to lose that it is hard for me to see what I have lost, if that makes sense. When I look in the mirror, I know in my head that there is a lot less of me. But there is still so much to lose, I have a hard time seeing it. At the same time, things are getting so much easier. Walking, sitting, sleeping, stooping, bending. I can do all these things so much easier, faster.
Some things I have noticed:
I can sit in a regular booth at a restaurant without worrying if I will fit.
I have a sternum bone, just found it again last night.
I can sleep on my back comfortably.
I can park at the far end of the parking lot and walk and enjoy it.
I get cold easier.
My butt gets sore from sitting too long, not as much padding there.
People look at and react to me differently. This really annoys me.
I'm going to go broke buying new clothes.
That's it for tonight. Have to go to work tomorrow early. And YES I can't wait to wear my new size 22 black jeans and my new 1X Christmas top to work. These jeans let me have actually defined LEGS. Cool! And my new shirt actually skims my body and fits. Like my daughter said (because I thought it was too tight) she was like, "Mom, it FITS they way it's suppose too!" It's been along time since I have not had to wear a tent.
If you are reading this, have a great day. Hang in there and take it one day at a time.
