Is it possible to consider five hours of walking around shopping as cardio? After returning home I was pooped, and broke. But, I need clothes to wear that fit. No one works hard to lose weight just to keep wearing the clothes they wore when they were larger. Also I prefer the term “get rid of weight” over “lost weight” when something is lost you tend to look for it. I really don’t want any of my size back. so whoever finds it can keep it! So yeah, I shopped ’till I dropped once again. For quite some time I have been saying I want to wear shorts again, and I ending up braving trying a pair on, I wasn’t too turned off by them but didn’t like the style, so I loaded up the dressing room and left the shop with two pairs of shorts!! I have not worn shorts in three years or more so this is a big deal. I also bought two dresses that are wait for it… wait.. MEDIUMS! So exciting. It has been a long time since I have fit into a medium dress. No more clothing shopping for a while I will wait until this set is too big, I now have enough pieces to get me through some time mixing and matching. Well, I do need some jean Capri’s but that is it. So here were my finds from yesterdays shopping extravaganza:
Oh and I think I have my scale back in order and went across the street to my lovely neighbor Janis’ and tried her two scales. This is where I ended up for week 12:
- Chest: 32 inches (- 1.5 inches)
- R Arm: 12 inches (- 0 inches)
- L Arm: 12 inches (+ .5 inches)
- Waist: 32 inches (- 0 inches)
- Hips: 41 inches (- 0 inches)
- R Thigh: 23.5 inches (- 1 inches)
- L Thigh: 23.5 inches (- 1 inches)
- Weight: 168 pounds (-3 pounds)
- Pant Size: 12
- BMI: 29.5
For a total of 3 inches and 3 pounds lost. This is day 86 of 90 of Les Mills Pump so on Day 90 I will have my last official weigh and measure in documents my 90 pump results. My Les Mills Pump Ultimate Cross Training Upgrade was dropped off by FedEx yesterday. I will blog about that later, promise
So, that will begin the day after Round 1 of Les Mills Pump is done. It is a 30 day schedule, I will continue my blogs and keep counting weeks as they are now.













Yay! Good job on the loss this week
And those shoes are adorbz. Cute with that last outfit too! xo
Thank you!!!
WHOO HOO! That is so exciting to fit into mediums! I cannot wait to be at that point in my life again! YEEE!!! The outfits are all adorable!! You definitely feel better about how you look when your clothes are hanging down around you because they are so big.
WOW! I am J-E-A-L-O-U-S!! Love the clothes and wish I could go do a spree. I have been restricted from using my credit cards! (by me — gotta save!). To know me is to know that I love the sequined top the best! The style AND that is my favorite color.
Completely off topic, I ran into this post and thought it might interest you: http://chronickatie.wordpress.com/2012/05/15/the-weight-of-fibromyalgia/
We are on a no credit diet here too! But I had extra saved up with both of us quitting smoking, so what better thing to do with my clean lung fund than shop!
Wow, i can totally relate to Katie, that post is really close to home, thank you for sharing!
You are very welcome! Can I borrow the white pants (mine got all stretched out after their first wearing) and the sequined top next Friday!?
Sure head on over
I have about 10 sequined tops to choose from!
I actually do too but they are older and the wrong colors.Black, navy blue, silverish, gold, maroon and white. The latter two are ‘under something’ cami’s and not ready for me to wear uncovered just yet!
I mean, this monday
