DAY 315: Drastic measures

bahhhhh

Lady, that's effing incredible. INCREDIBLE! I'm so proud of you! And it's a good reminder for me of a couple of things. One, in the past month I've lost maaaaybe 5 lbs-- despite a strict diet and some pretty major workout gains (um, nbd but I'm learning how to use the adult section of the gym weights). So I was feeling a little butt hurt, but then I tried on a dress I *just* bought in a size down from where I am now-- you know, it was on sale and I'm headed that way, so why not? Well I tried it on last night and it fits-- it's maybe even a little... loose... So, OH YEAH! Measurements! I don't think I've taken mine since August or so, so I'm very interested in where I stand now. I never did measure my fingers-- buuuuut I just moved and while unpacking I found my *snicker* highschool class ring. It fits on my pointer finger-- it has NEVER fit on my pointer finger. In my life. Say what? Anyway, you also reminded me why it's so important to just keep on truckin' -- because we started this hard-ass "journey" (vomit, but I don't have a better word right now) about the same time. And you have accomplished DOUBLE what I have. DOUBLE! I took a hiatus-- and it took a toll. I'm not beating myself up or anything, but you know that stupid gym meme quote that says something like "imagine where you'd be XXXXXXXX if you'd started XXXXXXXXXXX"? That. So. Imma keep on truckin', even when I'm discouraged by the scale (because I mean, honestly? I know better) and work on remembering to remembe

Um. Haven't spoken in months, and I just want to point out that we are still leading parallel lives. I just had the same experience trying on something that didn't fit when I bought it recently, and it suddenly does now (see latest blog post). Also, I HAAAAAAATE the phrase "journey" with a burning passion. I keep ALMOST writing a blog post about it, but not quite getting there. So thank you for STILL/always being in my head. :D All that freaky awesomeness aside, CONGRATULATIONS on your progress! You are a killer and I love it. Have I mentioned how over the moon I am that you're back here? Because I am. Times infinity. Keep up the baller progress!
