NO PANTS ANYMORE……

Ok, so it finally got cool here now…We had a high of 92 on Wednesday, and Thursday finally started off cool…So I sent my kids to school in shorts, and I asked my daughter how warm it was supposed to get because it was cold!,and she told me 92… And I came back from dropping them off to discover the actual high was only due to reach 77!  Ok so I felt awful letting my kids freeze in the am hours because I thought it was gonna get warm!  Anyways I came home to start rummaging through my work pants and you see I haven’t worn pants to work in over 6 mos. It is so warm here, shorts are a staple…So I began to trash my closet in search of some pants suitable fior work that wouldn’t fall to the floor as I walked!  Well I couldn’t find much, I did find a pair of Capri’s I had bought a few weeks prior because they were on Clearance and they only were like 3 bucks!  I bought them too small though in hopes of reaching that goal, and wala it worked!  I never buy clothes now unless I buy a size smaller than what I am in so that If I keep on losing weight, then I will have some stuff fit me!  So Today rolls around and I have the same problem, just a different day!  NO pants to fit!  Now this is actually a great thing- going from 18w-20 to a 12 now!  I can’t possibly be too upset because I am excited to be in smaller clothes and yes Maybe I don’t have anything to wear but hey, that means I get to go shopping!  Yahoo!  Anyways I have discovered that since I have no pants I MUST go and get at least 3 pairs for work now(since I only wear black or tan to work 3 will do) and then I can look awesome!  It is other things too but you can get away with big t-shirts and bigger jackets, but pants are very noticable when they are too big! So I wore a pair of “SKINNY” capri’s today, and my legs were a bit cold because it was only 42*F this am….But boy I got a LOT of comments! At least 4 people I knew today commented and wanted to know how much weight I have lost now… Going from a chunky overweight “fat” mom to having a cute skinny face slightly overweight, and headed straight for the diva lane!  Shoot before too long you won’t be able to even tell me anything, I will be so FLY!  Lol….Ok so you can see that I am radiating energy from this natural high I am on…..AND I weighed in this morning and another 2lbs down….See I am stuck at a 2lb weight loss each week, but hey I am happy with two pounds a week!  That will put me at less than 15 more weeks of being away from my goal weight!  Hey I can live with that!  A new years gift to myself!   

HOT RODS DON’T FORGET TO WEIGH IN!

    Keep it up! Compliments make you feel nice - but, just think about how much better you’ll feel as you shed off more. You seem like a strong lady - so, I have a lot of faith in you. Just be strong, keep on rolling, and you’ll need to buy lots of new clothes! Don’t let me down :P I almost broke today on one of my rules and I thought of you guys and it kept me strong!!!
