Today is my Birthday miss my goal by 2 pounds!!!!

Well my goal was to weigh 170 today at age 53. Well, I weigh 172.... Oh well my next goal is to weigh 165 by my cruise date which is March 5th, my hubby is taking me to Jamaica, Grand Cayman Island and Cozumel. That is only 7 pounds, I think I can, I think I can, I know I can!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I stopped excersicing, need to get back at it. My dress for the formal dance on ship is a 10 and it almost fits ....just snug on the tummy but not bad. If I push my excersice these next 3 weeks, it might look great! We have a Valentines day dance on the 18th. That dress I bought a 12 and fits great, but it is just a party dress not formal. Funny really depends on how they are made to if they fit or not. I have some sun dresses size 10 fit great and some 14's still fit too. I still don't like them tight or snug you can see every wrinkle, sag, fold, etc., etc., etc. Need a girdle!!!!! Had to buy new shoes all mine were too big. Fun Fun but afraid they won't fit in a few months so I bought not to expensive ones. My bathing suit is a 12 looks great except my legs are horrible saggy awful so I bought a wrap to go over the suit. I may just wear shorts over it. Sorry for the rambling just was frustrated I missed by 2 lousy pounds. Hugs to all Deloris 309/288/172/150

Your doing great Deloris, I'm at 172 and I was 235 at surgery. I don't use what we used to call a girdle, but do use one of those all in one slimmers from Walmart, around 20 bucks, keeps the wiggle down when your going for a look!! Happy birthday!!!! HW 250 SW 235 CW 172 GW 150/160????

Thanks, I will look for a slimmer. You are doing really awesome also. Thanks again for the Birthday greeting. Deloris
