Kristi Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 Good evening All, Well, I did something I wasn't going to do. I weighed myself on the scale. Bad..Bad..me..... Anyways, I am still on Operation Size 10, but here is what happened. I decided I was going to wear one of the size 12s in my closet that I only tried on a few weeks ago. Well to my surprise I put them on and get this.... there was room in the waist... The last time there wasn't and this time they were loose :cheerleader: I was in shock. so I immediately stripped back down to my undies and jumped on the scale... I hit 170!!! WOO HOO............ It has been so long since I have weighed even under 195, and now I am 170..... I tell ya, I did the happy dance for about 20 minutes... I couldn't contain myself... :girl_dance: I am so tasting the 160s right now it isn't funny. My trainer gave me the goal which was to hit 164 before I left for Philly next month, and I am so very very close... And I didn't think it was that possible when he told me that... I have more motivation than ever to get into my size 10s right now.... Well, I am off now. Hugs, Kristi

MyNewLife Posted September 10, 2009 Report Posted September 10, 2009 Kristi! That is AWESOME~ I also have decided to stay off the scales until the 18th of this month which is a HUGE step for me. I normally weigh myself at least 2-3 times a week. It is SO hard not to get on them! You are going to be in those 10's before you know it! Good luck to you, Carrie

I try to "do your best and forget the rest"...lol but that is easier said than done! I just walk by him and say .."you go baby" and just keep walking...lol Carrie
jhawkchick75 Posted September 11, 2009 Report Posted September 11, 2009 Congrats that is so fantastic!!!! And i'm with you all with the excessive weighing in! I do it every day and sometimes more than once a day. I just can't help it! But I don't let it get me down if it is up or down a bit - it only "really" counts on Wed that is my weigh day.
DisasterWalking73 Posted September 11, 2009 Report Posted September 11, 2009 Yay! Go, you - that's awesome! =D>
Kristi Posted September 11, 2009 Author Report Posted September 11, 2009 Thank you all, I have been so busy the last couple days. I really tried not to get on the scale for a while and it was so very hard not to. I will do my best to go by size and fit of clothes, but I missed my scale. I have been struggling to stay off, but ah well, I will try, no guarantees now.. So last night I tried on my stretchy capris that are size 10 and I got them on and zipped them up and they were a tad snug in waist but felt so very good. I have 2 other size 10 jeans (non-stretchy) that don't fit yet, but I will get there. It is a process. My trainer at the gym is surprised by how much I push myself, but as they say, "ya gotta do what ya gotta do..." And this is all for me, so I push my body and keep training hard. I did for the first time in years get on a treadmill yesterday after I did the bike for 25 minutes at the gym. I actually did not get dizzy on it and stayed on for over 20 minutes. :lb25: That is a record for me. (usually after I do the nautilus machines and free weights and other stuff, I do 20 minutes on the elliptical and 20 on the bike.) Woo hoo.... Anywho, I have to take my recycling out to the recycling center. Fun... Hugs to all, Kristi
