Default Not enough holes in my belt.

You know if I were to tell this to my friends they would say that's nice. But they just wouldn't get what this means to me.
This morning when putting on my belt I had trouble with it. I pulled it as thigh as it needed to be but no matter how many times I tried I just could seem to get it to buckle up. Buckling your belt is just one of those things you don't look at, you just do it. So I had to look down to see what the problem was and I have ran out of holes. I was standing there in almost SHOCK. I remember when I bought this 48 inch belt a few months ago and I could barely get it to first hole. I never noticed that I must have been slowly using up all the holes.
This has got me more excited than a nice Whooosh. Even though my weight loss has slowed down a lot over the past few months, I'm still getting smaller.
I just had to share this with people I know would understand.

Oh man I went throught the same thing 2 weeks ago. I pulled and pulled and I was out of holes. DH said he would make new holes for me till we can get out and buy one.

It's so exciting huh? Good for you.

I'm keeping my old belt to wrap around me twice after I reach goal.

Cheers,

Congratulations on your wonderful loss! Sounds like you need to have a ceremony and trash the old belt! You must be very pleased!
