So, I guess my post about this will largely be the fact that I bought a sexy bra and matching panties yesterday to wear for Hubs last night since it was our anniversary.
First time I've worn something sexy in a few years.
I bought two new pairs of exercise pants yesterday - size LARGE since my XXLs and my XLs keep falling down.
And I was also able to wear Hubs winter jacket ZIPPED UP!!! When I bought it for him a couple of months ago, I couldn't come close to zipping it up.
I think, overall, my mood is better and more positive. I did have a tough time when trying to find some sports bras that I would like and that would really cut down on the "movement" and I am still SOL on that front.
Although being positive about MYSELF does not come naturally to me -- it is getting easier.
And I am getting a lot better at accepting compliments.
"I'm fat as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!" -- this was my original summary of Fat, Angry Blog. Between July 23, 2010 & April 2, 2011 I went from 278 lbs to 204.2 lbs. BUT here I am near the end of July 2012 at 255 lbs... *SIGH* I've got to stick with it this time!

This is awesome, FAB! Your progress just keeps amazing me. When I started reading you several months ago I had no idea you'd come this far so quickly. Thank you for participating in my Challenge for the month. Having great, supportive friends like you has made all the difference in getting through this Challenge myself. XOXO
ReplyDeleteAWESOME! Those are some fabulous NSV's, hon! Congratulations! :)
ReplyDeleteThumbs up!!!
ReplyDeleteIt takes time to change and you are doing a fantastic job of it.
ReplyDeleteHey did you try Addition-elle? I found my sports bra there and I have rather large girls!!!
ReplyDeleteKeep up with the positive attitude! You're making such progress! As for a sports bra, I can never find 1 that gives me enough support so I always double up. I have heard that the ta-ta tamers from lululemon are outstanding, but they're $50...which is a little steep for me!
ReplyDeleteWoot woot - sexy undies. Good for you and the better mood - Priceless. That's what I'm loving right now, a better mood, happier.
ReplyDeleteSurprisingly I got an especially restrictive sports bra at Victoria's Secret... Who knew?!?!
