Now, I know that the reason I have done this is not good, but, still, it is the one high point in my life right now (well, besides my job)
Today, I pulled out a skirt from my "bin!"
Explaination: In high school, I was not super skinny, but not heavy either. I was athletic, and had an athletic build, but, I shopped in the juniors section, wore mini skirts and backless tops.. all that fun stuff.
After high school, I started gaining weight, as we all seem to do. College, I gained the normal 15, then I got married, and within a year or two, I had gained about 80 pounds. Yipes! I put all my clothes that were too smal in a bin, thinking that eventually I would be able to fit into them again, and there they sat, for the last 3 years.
Well, today, I pulled a skirt out, and put it on. And it fit! This skirt is 10 sizes smaller than the size I wore at my highest weight. 10 sizes!! I thought about pulling things out of the bin because this weekend, as I was moving boxes from the car, the pants I was wearing completely fell down. I'm talking around my ankles, while I'm holding a box in my arms! Awesome. Good think no one was outside! They had gotten so big that I couldn't even keep them up!
I am currently 76 pounds smaller than at my highest weight! I still have.. well 20 minimum to go... 40 to get to where I was in high school (ahhh.. to weigh what i did in high school! lol)
Now, sadly, most of the reason I've lost so much weight is depression. A majority of it has come off in the last year and a half - 2 yrs, but I'll take it!
So, I just want to say thank you to everyone who has helped me to be depressed in the last year, it has really helped my health (kinda) lol. (ok, seriously, that was a joke, don't take offense if you think you are one of those boys)
