This is the first time I have, on any sort of weight loss plan other than excessive exercise and no food, that I have made the weight 165!!! I am soo happy, I could cry. I know that seems like an insignificant number, but I have always hovered a little to a lot above here from the time I started any type of dieting (4 years ago). I am sooo darn happy, I just don't know what to do with myself! I have already put it in my sig, my journal, and now this post. Man, I honestly never thought that I would make it here, and now I am looking forward to wearing size 5's again (like the only time I weighed 115, in FOURTH Grade) That was the first time I realized I was fat, since I jumped from kids sizes to a women's five in jeans in Third grade, a nine in fifth, a 12 in 6th, a 16 in 7th, and an 18 in 8th, and held it there. Man, I am enjoying this, too. I honestly think the reason I stayed at my weight was that my body couldn't hold any more fat!!! Okay, I know that 165 isn't that much, but I am VERY short, barely breaking 4'12" and I really need to be around 100 lbs, according to the charts, so when I started this WOL, I was just like those of you who are 5'7" and 215 pounds!!! So for me, this is breaking the big 200 in my own, shorter body. Sorry for the tangent, but I had to get the word out!!!!
Love Y'all

CONGRATULATIONS

Now set your next target and go for that!

since I teach elementary school I have this odd image of you in 'fourth grade clothes' Especially since most of our fourth and 5th graders would rather dress like Spears and Aguilera....LOL -- but hey, kids clothes can be cheaper!!!

Well, don't worry about that, since MY fourth grade clothes were adult clothes, then. I have never fit into the "real" children's clothes since I was very, very young. The fourth grade clothes I will be wearing will be a five or a six in normal clothes, not a smal or medium in children's clothes, so don't worry about the Spears look, and I definetely won't be wearing Mary Kate and Ashley either!!!
