Please excuse me for a moment whilst i blow my own trumpet!!

Fighting the bulge
Ive just been on my lunch break to buy an England top!

I have been to all the sports shops and supermarkets and found nothing which i like.

So on my way back i walked passed republic. I dont know if they dont do a size 16 or if they never have them but i can never buy clothes in there!!

So anyway i saw these 2 gorgeous England tops and set myself up for disappointment taking 2 size 14s into the changing room.

I think you know whats coming next...

not only did the 14 fit me in the t-shirt (very comfortably!!) but i had to get a size 12 in the tank top!!!

I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO pleased with myself :) I havent been clothes shopping for so long as im so fed up of things looking gorgeous on models and hangers and like an orange in a sock on me lol

ROLL ON PAY DAY!!! lol i can now fit into the items of clothing i wore when i was 10 years old!!!! Time for a new wardrobe me thinks

xx
 
WOW!! I am sooo looking forward to being able to do that. You must be walking on air!
 
WELL DONE!! Must be a fantastic feeling - I'm very jealous of your achievements :)


Thank you :bliss:

Looking at your stats it wont be long until your the same :) it is an amazing feeling!

Watch you bmi you'll be into the next bracket soon - that was one of my best feelings :)

hey, that's awesome!!! :) xxx
 
Well done - could cost you a fortune come payday though :)

Yea i think payday is literally going to last for that day lol.

Thank you all so much :D :D :D

Its really given me a boost to keep it up!!

I cant wait til im a full size 12 :) instead of squeezing into a 14 and pretending it fits like i use to! lol

OMG im a proper size 14!! hahahahahhahahaha

xxxx
 
well done that's fantastic!
 
You blow away you should be proud of yourself ! We don't treasure our achievements enough and I think this is one reason we start to put the weight back on. I know that when I reach goal (been there many times)I start picking on different aspects of body imperfections e.g. my boobs are still too big etc instead of being grateful for all the pluses that being normal weight brings.
Hoping this time round will be different.

Thank you all so much!!

My OH was really impressed when i got home, until it occured to him that i had a cheeky smile on my face and wanted money haha!!

This is so true Lippy!! We dont celebrate our achievements so much, ive already started about 'once i get to target...' for me its my boobs aswell but because they're small not big lol

I think we should definitely be happy about the things we can change - and have.
