Well, today I got up and thought, "Maybe I should put on my pair of capris that were to tight last year and see if they fit"...well holy mother of pearl, they fit.  Not only do they fit, but guess who can breath in them!  ME~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

THat helped me this morning because I have been stuck at 255-252 for the last week or 2...Boy if that isn't enough to **** off the pope.   But getting those capris on, really helped me out.  Another thing I'm finding is I'm not very excited about losing 34lbs.  I don't know why...well I think its because I've gotten to this weight before and actually this exact weight and I can't ever get past this point.  This point is usually where I give up and go back to my old ways...Not this time.  I actually go see the PA and NUT on Monday...I'm very excited to see them!  But anyway, cheers to NSV!!!!!

Congrats! Fitting into clothes that used to be too small is just the best feeling. I think it's as good as, if not better, than seeing the scale go down. Keep up the good work!

I know what you mean about the lack of excitement and being stuck at a certain weight for awhile, but fitting into clothing that was too small IS an achievement, so congrats! I stayed in the 230's for what seemed like months and the 220's flew by, so you see, weight loss can be an interesting journey. Keep up the great work!

Keep up the good work.
If you feel stuck at a certain weight, you could try some exercise.
Water aerobics seemed to really help me get past some weight barriers. Clothes fit better and more and more people are noticing.
Cheers!

Yah, you!!!  That is such a great feeling.  The other day I got ready to go out, and I looked at myself, and I looked awful because everything I had on was too loose.  It's a great feeling, huh??!!
  One day at a time, and one meal at a time, and I WILL reach my goal!

Wait till you have a friend who HATES shopping say she needs to take you shopping!  Happened to me recently...  I was mortified.

I love it!!!  That's great!  It shows that we are on our journey down!  I think I would have given her a big old hug!

Good for you Jamie!  I finally got into some pants I'd bought in a smaller size.  Missed my goal date of May 7th by 2 weeks, but I got into them when I really needed to. So cheers to NSV's!
