New-Old Clothes
So I have been on this diet/weight lose plan for almost 3 months..... and finally I'm seeing some results.... I mean it seems like it has taken me a ton of time to lose anything substantial. But there is an upside....finally. You see....I am A CLOTHES HORSE..... I love to shop... just ask my family. So I have tons of clothes is various sizes now, since I have moved up and down the scale, and well most of my favorite clothes I haven't been able to fit into... till now.... I can finally fit into one of my favorite khaki long skirts.... I loved it when I got it and I wore it a ton ,a year or so ago, but then "grew" out of it.... Anyway last night when I was planning my outfit for work, on a whim I pulled it out of the closet and tried it on....to my surprise it slide right on and even looked good... after a quick ironing job, it look great on. I was in heaven. I start looking thru my clothes for something else I could try on and see if that fit...... as I started pulling things out and putting them on, I realized I had a whole "new" wardrobe. It was the best feeling ever, I don't have to go out shopping for anything really new ( alright I say that now, but we all know I will probably be out there soon again). But seriously, it makes all the hard work I have gone thru so far worth it. The best part is... tonight is the start of Rosh Hashana and I have a great outfit for tomorrow's services. I got this cute suit, that is a little dress with a balero jacket... 2 year ago for my cousin's bar mitvah and have only wore it 2x... cause I once again "grew" out of it. So a month ago i tried it on and it was tight... not super tight but tight enough for me to think " sausage in casing".... so that was right before I started Jazzcercise... and one of my goals was to lose enough weight to get into the suit for this weekend. So last night in my "fashion show" in front of the mirror, I finally tried on the dress and it looked good...even without panyhose and heels..... I was elated.... I actually jumped up for joy. Truth be told I have been working out but my teeth have been bothering me a lot so every night I have had either ice cream or a pudding popsicle.... so I was worried that it was being counterproductive with my workouts... but it looks like things are working out for me. Now I just have to remember not to eat a ton tonight and continue on my path.....cause I have a wedding next weekend and then Yom Kippur with other " new" set of clothes to make sure look good. Cross your fingers and hope I don't have to go shopping before the weeks end.
