Diary of a Fat Girl: Part...Oh Hell, Who Can Remember?

It's been a while since I've done an update. I'm in a weight-loss holding pattern this week, due to some bad decisions, food-wise. But I'm not gaining, so that's good!

Also good--make that GREAT--is that shopping for clothes is fun again. I had to stop at Target today, and I looked in the Misses section. I bought a pair of Bermuda shorts and a couple of polos--and they all fit! Life is good when you're not buying in the Women's department. And less expensive.

Tonight I'm wearing a darling pair of Snoopy pajamas that I bought when living in England. They didn't fit for a while, but I couldn't bring myself to get rid of them. Now, they fit again.

My arms are getting more defined. Every few days, I discover a new muscle that wasn't showing itself previously.

My new trainer, C., is awesome. She likes to use a more cardio-based workout than B. did, combining cardio and strength training to make me really work. I always leave feeling wiped out in a good way. I usually crash for an hour or so when I get home, but then I get a second wind, and I find myself vacuuming or some such thing.

I'm still under 200 pounds, and I couldn't be prouder.

Thanks! It feels sooo good to see my body get in shape. It's what keeps me going on the days when I just don't feel like it.
