Fruits/Veggies - Finally!
I’m so happy! Friday’s are my days off from class, so I did wake up at 8 but then I went back to sleep as soon as I saw the time.. umm.. Kind of a mistake? I woke up around 10:20 and I felt really tired. Although.. I didn’t get enough sleep during the week so I’m not sure, I think I’m just feeling exhausted because my period is around the corner, well last month it started today, will probably start soon..
Anyway, I felt pretty bloated and a little crampy.
After using the bathroom n washing my face and stuff, I went to go change. I caught myself in the mirror.. and wow. I looked at myself from the side and the front and.. well.. I really got smaller, haha!
I know it sounds bizarre especially when I was feeling bloated, but I really took a long look at myself, and I look so much smaller.
I tried on this navy blue and white semi-dressy button-up top I bought from Charlotte Russe a while back when I was in the 160’s during the semester (it was on sale I think) and.. as soon as my arms slid through the sleeves I knew it fit me. I buttoned it up and it is actually.. a PERFECT fit, except for a tiny bit of tightness at the bust, but not enough to really pull the buttons or anything. I think I will wear it on Monday if the weather isn’t ridiculously hot. I can’t begin to describe how exciting it is!
Yes, I still have about 20 more lbs to go, but just seeing how tiny I’ve already gotten is extra motivation and.. just, great.
I also bought these size 11 wide-legged dark-wash jeans on clearance from Charlotte-russe a while back, and it couldn’t really fit, I was in the late 160’s during that time, but I bought them anyway knowing I would be able to fit into them later and well it was cheap! Yeah.. I can fit into them now! I loove it.. my other tops fit me now too.. all of them.
And, they are all size mediums. I know some places run smaller on mediums and I probably can’t fit into those, but still. Like, there is a jacket I bought from Forever 21 last year that was a size medium, and it couldn’t fit me last year and this weight, and it is still tight today, but that is still great because I will be able to wear it soon. The only thing that concerns me is that I won’t be at this weight much longer, so a lot of my clothes that I spent money on will no longer fit me. I *hope* that doesn’t happen to that jacket because it is really cute, but I think it will be a good, looser fit when I get smaller so maybe I won’t have to worry about that. I’m not THAT worried though, imagine me fitting into a small… haha.
My arms are so much smaller.. my thighs… hips.. my jawline is becoming so defined.. my face is getting that nice and pointy chin… my stomach.. I love how much smaller my stomach is, that was always the place I hated the most… oh my bust is smaller too.. and my collarbone haha I love that I can see it. The only thing that sucks losing is my butt haha, but I am going to take up Pilates or something again maybe during transition to get that a lil lifted and maybe bigger hah. It is a small price to pay though. I think the only reason why I’ve been feeling.. still.. BIG is because I still wasn’t able to fit into a lot of the clothes which really complimented me. Now, I feel.. average.. and.. not BIG.. but a little chubby which is really what I am now, and I’m totally fine with that because I can pull off a lot of things I couldn’t when I was “BIG”. I’m happy. =]
I didn’t bother weighing myself this morning because I knew I was bloated, but at the same time, I felt a bit smaller so I suspect I still lost fat. I am going to drink water allll day since I don’t have an excuse not to haha, and I have to dig around to see what I’m going to eat today. I’m so ecstatic. I’m going to hang out with Rocio today who hasn’t seen me in over a month, (I haven’t really been hanging out.. I’m trying to save money) so she is going to be in for a shock. She saw me previously when I got this small but last time she saw me, I was around 180. So yeah.
I’m going to go do some homework!

How fantastic that all of those clothes are fitting and that you’re seeing a difference! If you’re missing your butt, doing squats and lunges are a good way to get it back (if you’re not already doing them). Have a blast wearing your new clothes
