205.0

Lately, co-workers have been asking me how much weight I've lost, and I beam "65 lbs."

Then they ask "how."  Eat less, move more.  They groan at this answer because they know it's the correct one but not what they want to hear.  They want to hear I'm on some new miracle diet or pill or perhaps had that gastric bypass surgery.  Nope.  Just losing weight the only correct way to do it.  Eat less, move more.  It's a lifestyle choice, not a passing phase.  I was obese for 30 years.  Don't wanna be that for the next 30.  Time to be a skinny chic, just 50 or 60 pounds to go.  Hubby doesn't want me too skinny, he doesn't like to see bones.  Besides, I gotta figure out how to get rid of the extra skin even after I have gone to muscle.  Heard about some oils & massages to help tighten.  We'll see.

I also need to up my squats.  I noticed my buttocks are getting less round and slightly saggy (extra skin.)  I want buns of steel people!

For now, it's time to purge my closet of 2X & 3X clothing.  Not going to get anything new until I have to.  Still got a pair of size 16 jeans in there I've been hanging onto for 15 years.  New with tags.  Very soon I'm gonna put those on, maybe by the end of summer.  Fingers crossed.

Eat less, move more!
