As reported in my last post I maintained the same weight as last week. While I could be upset that I didn’t lose anything I choose instead to focus on the positive. My “positive” is the fact that my pants are a lot baggier than they were a week ago. My weight my not have changed but my size has. That’s what is more important to me. My energy is up and my pants size is down. It feels good to slip into something that was a bit too tight and find that it now has a bit of room! Currently in a pants size 12, I think in about a week or so I will need to buy some size 10 jeans. Yay!

It may sound funny but my rings even fit better. I no longer have to soap up my fingers and force my rings off at night. In fact, they even spin around a bit during the day. My co-workers have advised me that they can see a difference in my figure and how my clothes fit. Nice! Positive reinforcement!

Though losing pounds is my obvious goal, I must remind myself that my journey is more than just losing pounds. It’s about gaining self-confidence and feeling comfortable in my own skin…and baggy jeans!
