Less Weight Is Great
This week I officially reached my weight-loss goal. It was about 3 weeks later than I originally planned since I was aiming for a January 1st target date, but all things considered I don't think a 3 week delay is that bad. I can tell that my pants are fitting much better these days. My underwear fits better too. I bought some new undies last summer, but I really hated the new stuff because it fit much tighter than my older underwear. I always dreaded wearing it because it wasn't comfortable, but now I prefer the newer ones because the old ones are too big!
Lately when I've been getting out of bed in the morning sometimes I will rub my hand over my stomach and I can tell that it's smaller. I don't have as much of a "gut" hanging out. It feels good. I'm guessing I've lost about 15 pounds since I started trying to lose weight about 3 months ago. I know for a fact that I've lost 10 pounds since I bought my scale in the second week of November. I'm a little bit surprised that I still seem to have some "love handles" sticking out on my sides. I may try to drop another 5 pounds or so, which would bring me to about what I weighed when I graduated from high school. I'm not any taller than I was then, so I don't think another 5 pounds is unreasonable. I would still be well within the normal range of B.M.I. for someone my height. We've all gotta have goals, right?

Congrats on reaching your goal! I have the same issue with a few new pants...I wear them when I know I've lost weight, because if I wear them after a rich week, they WILL be tight. Nothing worse than painted on pants. Im too old for that nonsense!
woo hoo! It didn't take that long really, even with the holiday treats.we do all need goals, or where would we be?
great, keep on achieving your goal :)
Only three months?! Thats great!!! The love handles are the hardest for guys to get rid of, but I'm sure you can do it!!!
good for you! i'm on a mission because after the holidays all of my pants became tight, even my socalled bigger pants.
