People keep telling me that I look like I have lost weight even though by the scale's accounting, I haven't lost any weight in about 2 months. It could be wishful thinking but I really think my skin is tightening up a bit, not all the way but at least a little. I've been heavy handed with the body butter and firming cream so, maybe that is working.
My size 22 pants are ready for the donate pile, the size 20's are a little better. The size 18's are just right. I don't want to buy more pants because I have a bunch of size 16's waiting for me to get my act together. I have to do laundry pretty often, though. I think I only have 4 work pants that fit me and thankfully, Friday is "jeans day" at work.
Lane Bryant has started hounding me with ads. They aren't happy that I got a new-to-me wardrobe without their blessing, lol. Wait until I lose so much weight I don't fit any of their clothes. It will be the end of a long-time love affair. I'll have to send them an, "it's not you, it's me" letter.
I did great on the low carb thing yesterday but went over my RDI a little. I lost about a lb. on the scale which brings me back to where I was last week this time. I still have about 3 lbs. to go to get back to where I was my lowest thus far.
Today I am thankful for my husband who cleaned the whole downstairs of our place while I was working when he found out we were having surprise guests. I am thankful to have lost a pound yesterday and so far I am on track with the carbs today. I am very thankful for the solid state hard drive my husband just ordered me. It should come in the mail in about a week.

Sounding like you had a good day :) I miss size 18! and 16 of course. I gained 20 pounds this year, but I still fit in size 20 which is very weird. I am so with you on looking forward to new smaller clothes. I work at Target and their clothes are snug, so I still have to shop at Walmart (my previous job) for clothes..the "just my size" stuff..sigh..Anyway, talk to you soon!! :)

It feels so good to get into regular sizes. I was so happy when I no longer had to go to Penningtons, or as I called them "tents r us" and get their horrible overpriced ugly polyester clothes.

Erin, you are so pertinacious! Keep on with it! @fol: or as my sister calls it, "Omar, the tentmaker".

Pertinacious is my middle name! Well, not really, but I would have to say that I am pretty stubborn when I want something, hehe. @Trill42: who are they kidding with that "just my size" stuff? I can't even count how many times I have given up trying to get those on after fighting with them until there is sweat dripping down my face, lol.

I KNEW Target ran small! I wear 12-14 everywhere but there. I got to tell Catherine's that I wouldn't be shopping with her anymore a few months ago. It was bittersweet. Well, actually just sweet.

I love your journal today. You sound great and you are really going in the right direction! DH is a KEEPER! I'm ripping up all LB, Romans, Woman Within catalogs. We can do this together. I have been going over my RDI for a couple of weeks now and maintaining not losing. Guess I better get on the stick and behave.

LOL - Good-bye letters to the "fat" clothes stores!!! I used to shop at Avenue for plus sized clothes - and recently all the stores in Minnesota closed so they can grow their online sales! This was just as I started wearing "regular" clothes - so I now just shop the "misses" line at the Dress Barn next door to the old Avenue store! LOL

Erin in my experience what is happening with your weight and size is normal - sometimes my scale didn't move down for two-three months yet my shape seemed to change and I definitely lost inches - I called it my adjustment time...it's like my body needed time to redistribute the fat lol! During this time do not get down about the scales, just keep on with your food and exercise plan and the scales will catch up with you :)

Tracy, I think you are right, but that just increases my frustration regarding weight loss being so much more complicated than "calories in vs. calories out." I am constantly adjusting my diet to find out what works. It's exhausting. But, worth it, for sure!
