newgrl's Journal, 13 Aug 19

Back with another 2 week weigh in. I lost 3 lbs in the two weeks as I'm sure this entry will not reflect that(website journaling issues). Still heading in the correct direction. This works for me!

Yesterday was the one year anniversary of me starting this diet. I started at 271. As of now, I've lost a total of 111 lbs. Although I miss some things, I was too heavy and had to make a choice. I'm ok with my choice. I feel better than I have in years. Walking, stairs, jogging around the yard, housework, yardwork, shopping.... none of them are really an issue for me anymore and it feels great.

My closet is almost completely empty. I had to toss all my bras and underwear and start over. At this point I'm wearing my old drawstring shorts, because I can make them any size I need to, and a handful of tshirts I've picked up at Sam's and Walmart. I was never a big shopper, so replacing all the clothing (oh God, I'm gonna need a new winter coat) will not be any fun, but it does feel good not to have to shop in the big ladies or men's sections anymore (barely....but still...).

Holiday weekend coming up soon. I hope everyone has tons of fun. I'll talk to y'all more when winter makes me bored sh*tless again. I do, after all, still have 40 lbs to go. Thank to all here at fatsecret for all the help and companionship along the way. It's much appreciated.
72.5 kg Lost so far: 50.4 kg.    Still to go: 18.1 kg.    Diet followed: Reasonably Well.

newgrl, congrats on your progress! Check out the thrift stores for clothes that fit, I got some amazing bargains and donated stuff back when it got too loose.
