Hey!   I've been there before... but yesterday it got rather chilly here, so I decided to put on a pair of jeans.  Well, I grabbed the wrong ones.. jeans I haven't been able to wear in a couple of months cuz they got too tight... and the went on EASY!  I was thrilled!! 

It was definitely some motivation to keep up the good work.. now if I can just get some exercise in.  I love to walk, but there are no sidewalks around here and even if that's ok for me... I have a 15mth old granddaughter who has to go with me... and it's really not safe for her..  So... I need to check into driving to one of the nearby developements and walking around it!!   I love to walk.. and it's the only exercise I can really keep up!!!

Grab a shopping cart and start walking the big stores.  You don't need to buy anything, just grab the cart for support and maybe put the grandaughter in it.  I did this for my first year.

Some days your the dog and some days your the hydrant.

Most malls open early for walkers and that is a decent work out...Even at night during the week most malls are kinda empty to walk at a decent pace.

Congrats on the jeans!

Thanks for continuing to inspire all of us!!  You are doing a fabulous job getting yourself back on track!!

I know you will be checking out the local neighborhoods - are there parks by your house you could go to?  That way you could walk and then maybe chase the 15 mos around in the park or play with?  Some parks even have walking tracks and what not, too.

Keep up the great work!

That's great Blanche!!  It's such a great feeling getting into smaller clothes...especially when we don't expect them to fit!
