Topic: RE: 8/30 weekly progress
I posted this on the main board in response to ChattyCathy's thread on blisters and exercize. I just had to brag a bit. The scale's moving verrrrrrrry slowly but my routine is good. ____________Saturday at 7:00am I did a 20 mi. ride on Katy Trail then came home & ate a protein bar for breakfast. As I got ready to cut the lawn, I thought........"this is just wrong!" Who'd have believed how my life has changed in the past 10 months? I would never have imagined how my mind and body would change. I was allergic to sweat and exercize. Best~barb 276/158/150/135

I think what kick started my weight loss again was that I replaced my breakfast with a protein shake...8oz of low fat lactaid milk, some ice cubes and GNC whey protein (cookies and cream)...tastes pretty good, if anyone interested in the info. It was on special

Topic: RE: Ring Sizes
I can wear my 2 c****erfall ring that I haven't worn in over 10 years (since my son was born) I am so excited. And I can't believe that you say 85 lbs is not great. I have lost 80lbs and I think it is WONDERFUL! I feel like I have my life back. Just because you didn't have 200 lbs to lose, don't make it out to be not as good as others. You have done a great thing for yourself (be very proud) We deserve to be proud of ourselves.

(Also you're probably right, insomuch as all clothes are made differently. According to one size chart I just looked at, my waist falls into the Size 14 category, my hips into the Size 12...so who knows! I just know what the tag on the jeans says, rofl!) ~Stacy

Hmm, the ever mysterious question. I don't know how I am in a Size 10. I know that I carry my weight in my thighs and lower abdomen (I have an apron), and that I have always had a small waist compared to the size of my thighs and tummy. That being the case, since the waist is what basically determines the size, I assume that's how I can be in a Size 10. I am wearing Liz Clairborne and Bill Blass Relaxed Fit Size 10s atm, the Relaxed part being for those aforementioned thighs and tummy, and because I prefer the tapered cuffs. Not too much difference though between those and a regular old pair of Size 10s, except a tad more thigh room and the tapered cuffs. I am 5'6" tall...but my waist is only 31" (I just measured). By comparison, my hips are 40" at this moment (also just measured). So maybe that shows what I mean by the waist of the jeans, etc. ~Stacy
