Whew. This has been a
busy day so far and I’m not even a quarter of the way through my swing shift
yet. Happy Friday (or to me, Happy
Tuesday of what is going to be an extra-long week).
I found this on Instagram and could definitely relate.
Back when I was in college, it was called “pre-funk” not “pre-game”
but the two mean the same. To pre-game
means you are having some drinks at home before you go out to the actual
party/event. Boy, those were the
day. Now, before I even think ahead to
what might be on my agenda, if alcohol is involved, I am pre-planning and
pre-tracking like a mad woman.
I actually reached my doctor’s goal weight of 175 this month
11 years ago. In some ways it feels like
a lifetime ago and yet, I remember that feeling like it was yesterday. I also have all the good feels of a FB Memory
that popped up a few days ago.
I had my first Oscar Party in 2014 and I busted out my high
school homecoming dress for the fancy occasion.
It was an amazing feeling that the dress fit and that I didn’t even need
an undergarment for it like the day I originally wore it. When I look back at my weight record from
March 2014, I was over my goal weight and I’m about 20 pounds heavier now than
March 2014.
Regardless of the extra weight I now carry, I feel
amazing. You see, in the comparison photos
where my Aunt Barb is wearing my homecoming dress, I am on the right, the one
in blue. I am pretty sure if I remember
correctly, the top I am wearing in the photo is a 3XL. I have all the good feels of where I am at
now vs. where I was back then.
A FB Memory also popped up of the time I was featured on Runs
With Cookies blog as part of her 100 pounds lost series.
Even though I might not be at my goal weight, I am always
proud of myself and my successes.
