Day 29

well, I can proudly say I have now lost 32 pounds all together! can I get a woot?

I am now past all the junk food, I find myself eating 4-5 small meals daily now, never exceeding 1500 calories. I exercise in any way possible, if that means pilates one day and walking with my hubby another...at least everyday I do some kind of exercise. I drink diet soda (occasionally) but usually I intake water or flavored 0 calorie 0 sugar 0 sodium water...

I now fit into my loosest size 16's but I am comfortably without a belt fitting into an 18...that's 2 dress sizes down so far! But like my grandmother warned me I think my plateau has just begun because I have been weighing in at 237 for almost an entire week now, never gaining any weight, just staying put...I will give it another week, and if I stay the same then I should expect to stay this weight for another 2-4 weeks....but strangely, this would of made me feel very discouraged in the past, but I was and am well aware that a weight loss plateau is just your body readjusting to the rapid weight loss your body was going through and it basically went into survival mode to where it thinks it's starving, so the body naturally preserves itself for a few weeks before losing lots more poundage once again...

I was also able to into an XL size sundress too, comfortably might I add, when I used to wear XXXL dresses and looked like crap in them! But my figure is slowly coming back, my face has dramatically changed, my hips, thighs, waist, arms, and tummy all have shown some results! the only thing I am majorly disappointed in is that my boobs have not sown the slightest difference! still the same ol cup size, and that's where I want to lose it the most! I will not lie, I have big boobs. BIG BOOBS!!! They are so big, they stick out like next week! and losing 32 pounds didn't yield even 1/2 cup size smaller! arrrgggg!!!! I may not see smaller boobies until I am probably down at least another 50-60 pounds! Anyway I do what I can to "minimize" the big breasted appearance...wearing granny looking bras, the ones that really squeeze them in, of course I feel way unsexy, being a newly wed of almost 2 years and wearing granny bras! My husband is a saint and he tells me that I am beautiful from head to toe, and that I should never feel shameful in front of him, but after losing 32 pounds, I still have those big boobs! oh well.... 32 pounds is better than nothing at all!
