Maintenance Week 3 and 4

OK I know I said I was going to get off of maintenance in my last post. Well I did and didn't haha. I changed my points back to the losing cycle and followed in until Thursday. Adam's cousin got married the Saturday before last so we went down for the wedding and stayed for about a week in Modesto. Since it was vacation, neither Adam or I tracked. We did the best we could to enjoy ourselves but not to gorge ourselves on food. We came home on Thursday the 23rd so I weighed in Saturday (two days ago now). During these last 2 weeks I lost 0.3 pounds. Not too shabby for not counting!
Now on to a follow up from my last post!
We stayed with our friends Adam and Vera the first day down in Modesto area. Vera has also lost a lot of weight ( by the way, you look great Vera!) Her starting size was an 18 (what I am now) Vera literally handed me a huge basket of clothes and said go at it! I got a TON of new shirts, pants, skirts, and a pair of boots! It was awesome!

This last week Tara drove home with us to Chico and she stayed with us for the weekend. Beside the AWESOME weekend we had, Tara and I went through my closet and got rid of every piece of clothes that doesn't fit me anymore or that totally needed to go!
I have been wanting to do this for a long time but couldn't justify it because I can't afford to buy a completely new wardrobe...or I just don't want to get rid of it because I am a tiny bit of a hoarder. Mostly the second lol. All the shirts that were lose, shrunk so they were short on me, or had stains. I mean, who really needs like 2 or 3 painting shirts? It was great to my self esteem to purge into clothes that fit me and looked great!
I don't have one pair of fat jeans anymore! Hooray!
We had a pile of DI and a pile for the trash. And believe me- she was not afraid to throw things in the trash!

SO last weeks goal of more confidence was a success! This next weeks goal is to get back on track of counting and go to the gym everyday!
What are your guys goals for this next week?

  1. awesome! I'm so glad those clothes fit you, it makes me so happy to see someone get use out of them, since they are of none to me anymore. I know the feeling of getting rid of it, as hard as it is to look in my closet and feel like i have so few clothes and least i know the clothes i have fit! and thanks for the compliment you're looking great too!
