I was 181 the morning I left for Rolex. But at one point last week and this week I was in the 185's. No clue what happened, but I wasn't eating the best that's for sure. I got sick with a 24 hour stomach bug this week and that dropped my weight and I've been able to keep it down for the 2 days since I've felt better. Hopefully it lasts. I'm not terribly worried, but I do really really want to see 176. Just once dammit! :)
I've been running about 3-4 days a week. The break while I was in KY was both good and bad. It made it hard to get back in the groove and I was hating running for a few days.
I shared this photo on Facebook earlier this week to keep myself motivated. . .
The left is 2010, middle is 2012 and right is this year, 2016. I was quite large in 2010 and that may be one of the only full body shots I have at that size. My max weight was 250, so it's possible I was a bit less there, but not much. I remember those pants like it was yesterday. And those freaking pants were sooooo soft and comfortable. I was almost sad to shrink out of them. They were Old Navy and I was unable to get a replacement pair. I think the jeans in the other two photos are the same pair, even thought hey don't really look it. There isn't a huge difference in the two photos on the right. Not even in scale numbers and clothing size, but in between those years I went back up in all numbers. I remember when those jeans didn't fit. I believe it was last year, 2015, when I wore them again at Rolex and I was so happy. I think I look happier and healthier in this year's photo. Why? The 2012 photo was after doing HCG. I don't regret doing that. But I don't think I'd do it again and I don't think it was the healthiest choice. I think I was tired and certainly didn't feel as good as I do now. So that's the difference I see when looking at those photos.
In other news. . . I was at Macy's last month and I saw a purse that caught my eye. I took a photo of it but I didn't buy it. I stalked it online and when I got back from KY, I saw the price dropped so I got it.
I'm usually a solid color purse girl, but for some reason I fell for this. And I love the striped interior.
And yesterday I got a package in the mail. . . . a total surprise gift. . . .
That's a Dooney and Burke cross body Cardinals purse! How cute is that? I've noticed them but never spent the $ on one. I was really really surprised to receive this in the mail! I might have got teary eyed.
I have a busy weekend coming up, including a graduation party. I'm pretty anti-social right now. I'd like to just stay home and do nothing. I haven't been able to do that in some time and I need that kind of break to be honest. Have a great weekend peeps!
Those bags are great! I wish someone sent me that kind of surprise in the mail!
ReplyDeleteI did hcg once years ago, and I lasted a month. I did lose 20 pounds but I was so incredibly hungry all of the time that I literally had dreams about food. I just couldn't bring myself to do it again.
