Scale victory - I'm down a few ounces - which doesn't seem like a lot but I've been bouncing the same 4 lbs for over a month.

NSV - I borrowed an outfit from my very thin daughter and her very thin partner because of all my "formal business" stuff is too big. And it not only fit, it looked good on me.

I'm down another inch and half in my waist so that's now 25 inches. I'm wearing and dropping out of a size 4. I've pretty much had to do an entire wardrobe upgrade because nothing fits which is good because for a long time I was wearing things that just covered my body. And now, I'm wearing things that I like and that are cute.
(BTW, I hate Victoria Secret and I hate vanity sizing.)

My MiL keeps telling me that I've lost "too much" and I need to put weight back on. Totes okay with that though.

And most importantly, I only have 11 more days to be done with August.
Bring on Autumn!

Have a great day guys!

It's been a lot of fun, br_e_co! 🙂 I wore my Madtree Brewing shirt yesterday. I'm super glad that's part of my wardrobe upgrade.

That's great! Ditto on none of my old clothes fitting any more. Which, while great, means I've been having to buy new clothes and I hate spending money on clothes! I've been starting to wash my t-shirts on hot and leaving them in the dryer for an extended period of time in an attempt to salvage some of them. I'm having mixed results 🤣 And yes, bring on autumn indeed. My favorite time of year, even though it goes by in the blink of an eye in MN. Pretty soon we'll be below zero with feet of snow on the ground.

Ryan - I completely understand. I'm especially mad about some of my old concert t's. A friend suggested turning them into a comforter. Which, I may do at some point.

You are a man that knows how to talk to a woman, Chris! I did post a transformation Tuesday thing a while back. Hold on, I'll grab the link.

It is! It's actually a little more like 76lbs in about 8 months because I mostly screwed around in the beginning and made a lot of excuses to make bad choices. I really got serious at the end of January and I've dropped about 68 of those pounds since then. Thank you for the kind words!

Let me guess: is the MiL slightly overweight? Nothing like a weight loss success story to make other people feel bad about their own lack of ambition to fix their own health. At size 4, you probably are hot. Ignore the jealous comments. They come with the territory of success.
