Sweet Sixteen!

Three months and 2 sizes.

It's a well known fact, I really don't like to shop for clothes for myself. But, yesterday was different. First of all, I was with my two boys. They had some things to buy so I went along. Anyone who knows them knows just how much fun they are to be around, especially when they haven't seen each other in 5 months. They are hilarious!

Second, I thought I might see how I was doing in my quest for size 14 and I needed some jeans so I tried on the size 16's. Keep in mind, I was still wearing my size 20 jeans and while I knew they were loose I was certain the 16's would be either too small or too tight. But not only do they fit, there is actually room in them! Needless to say, I have a new pair of jeans making me feel even more motivated to keep going!

So, two sizes in three months. I could see another size in the next 2 months to get to my goal of size 14 by July 26th when we leave for Hawaii.

I have now lost 30 pounds in three months. Again, it might not be easy but I can see 20 more pounds in the next two months. Especially since my routine has been sidetracked the last three weeks by a case of bronchitis that had me down and out for about 3 weeks of exercising. I tried a few times but bronchitis is not conducive to heavy breathing. but now I'm back and maybe the rest to my body will get me off of this plateau I seem to have hit.

Anyway, life is good and all is right with the world with both boys at home for a couple of nights before they left for their first summer adventure at The Sasquatch Music Festival in the Gorge. I'm so happy that they have so much fun together.
