My weight continues to go down, and I am FINALLY in the 150's, which I've been longing to be in. I can't remember the last time I weighed in the 150's. Well, I think I can remember. I believe it was 2003. And I believe it was due in part to the fact that I was about to get married. And then I got married. And ate, and ate, and ate. Isn't that what happily married people do?
Here are this week's results:
Weight Lost This Week: 2.8 pounds
Current Weight: 157.2
Current BMI: 23.2
Total Weight Lost: 16.2 pounds
I am very happy with my weight loss so far. I've been working really hard at this, and I feel more determined than ever to be happy with my body. But at the same time, I realize that happiness with my body runs deeper than a number on a scale. Here I am. . . I've lost more than 16 pounds, and to be honest, I still feel fat. My tummy has no muscle tone, which can most likely be attributed to my pregnancy of a year ago. My face looks heavy, my arms feel big, my legs feel big. Oh my! Do I have some self image issues?
Not only that, but I'm waiting to fit into smaller clothing. I'm still wearing 10's, although they are looser than they used to be. I don't know. I think I've just felt badly about my weight for so long, that all I can still see is a large girl.
Here is to having better self image and to seeing the beauty in myself again.
