WTG Shari!!!!!! Very awesome!!

Shari4 · 02-14-2013, 08:42 AM

Thanks everyone! Funny thing is.......my weight remains the same as yesterday. Even after a terrific DD!

owell.............the joys of "the bounce"!

I still plan to have lunch with my guys to celebrate Valentine's Day! I got gorgeous flowers from my wonderful DH!! Our son has a doctor's appointment this morning. So, we'll celebrate after. Have a great day everybody!!

LoCarbGal · 02-14-2013, 08:46 AM

Shari, that's marvelous news! You SHOULD be so proud and happy! And it sounds like you've got one gem of a doctor. YAYAYAYAYAY for you!

Kismet311 · 02-14-2013, 02:18 PM

Today is a DD and YET AGAIN they are having a huge potluck at work. Lots of dessert type goodies. Seriously, they are trying to kill me!

I totally avoided the room they set up with mountains of food (well it probably wasn't that much but I wouldn't know because I didn't step foot in there all day!!!) Anyway, there might be leftovers tomorrow so I can get some on my UD

JayLynn · 02-14-2013, 04:33 PM

Shari...

one the great news from the doctor and also being so close to goal. You are another great example of JUDDD magic and your posts are always inspiring. How nice you have a doctor who listens and supports you. Such encouragement and confirmation is important.

LoCarbGal · 02-14-2013, 09:32 PM

Kismet, great job! It isn't easy to avoid things like that ALL DAY! Great NSV!

Kismet, great attitude for your DD!! And, hopefully there will be some left for your UD!!

After my great day yesterday, I pigged out today!!

It was worth it tho to celebrate the day with my 2 guys!

Thanks everyone for your kind words! You all are the best!!

Alison · 02-15-2013, 12:32 AM

I don't know if this is actually a NSV, or perhaps I'm imagining it, but even though I haven't lost a drastic amount of weight (yet), I feel my pants fitting a bit better. I found out that my Victoria's Secret pajama pants (that I practically LIVE in) were bought in two sizes, L and XL. I was noticing how they were fitting me (instead of cinching me at the waist) and I double checked the tag... they were the size L! So I'm definitely in the size 12 range!

I also feel a bit smaller in the belly/back than I was a month ago. I'm sure of it. Some of my fitted soft-cotton t-shirts are a little loose in the back. Unheard of!

svenskamae · 02-15-2013, 03:04 AM

Woohoo for loose clothes and size 12!

Those are definitely NSVs, Alison! Congratulations!

LoCarbGal · 02-15-2013, 09:16 AM

Alison, I'm sure you're not imagining it, because the scale doesn't always tell the whole tale! You're doing it, girl! It's working! Wonderful news!

Shari4 · 02-15-2013, 09:56 AM

Alison,

hooray for smaller pants & looser t shirts!! Awesome!!

hot-in-texas · 02-15-2013, 12:34 PM

Alison and Kismet, WTG!

Alison · 02-15-2013, 01:48 PM

Yay! Thanks everyone!

I envy you! I have a bunch of shirts in my closet that I'm hoping to fit into soon!

Carly · 02-15-2013, 04:47 PM

Yay Kismet and Alison! Both are great NSVs!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They had extra goodies but I thought about it after having a sandwich for lunch and I wasn't really hungry so I didn't go into that room! I think they had cake and stuff but instead I had 2 pieces of chocolate that my student's mom sent in. That was enough!

Librarygirl · 02-16-2013, 09:50 AM

I don't know if I mentioned it already, but I have noticed one major difference since I've been JUDDDing. I am no longer falling asleep at work! I used to drag through the days and would sometimes even take a nap on my lunch hour, but now even when I don't get the optimum amount of sleep the night before, I never feel very tired at work. Major plus.

JMBM · 02-16-2013, 10:56 AM

Can definitely empathize. I am lucky in the fact that I don't work. I use to teach 2nd grade and every time you turned around food was in the faculty area. So hard when you see others indulging, but I'm going to just say "self" yours is tomorrow. lol Hang in there!

That's great! The increased energy is a great benefit.

Shari4 · 02-20-2013, 06:34 PM

Not only did I get into a size 10 jean that zips & buttons, with elastic in the back(versus all elastic!), but, I tucked my shirt in for the first time in many years!!!!! When I came downstairs after dressing to go shopping, my DH said, "Welllllll, look at you!!"

My sons aide even commented on how good I look!

I think I could wear an 8, if I can find them.

I am amazed!!!!

Flutter · 02-20-2013, 06:37 PM

LG, awesome on having more energy!!

Shari, o.m.w.!!!! I can't imagine tucking my shirt in. (did I ever do that? Maybe in high school? LOL!) I am in awe of you!! GREAT job! Of course, the size 8's (that WILL fit when you try them on) sound fabulous, too!

Shari4 · 02-20-2013, 06:47 PM

Thanks, Melinda! I've been searching online for this particular brand of jean & so far, no go. But, I'm not giving up! I just bought the pair I wore today last week! (I bought the last pair in this size!) So, I know they are out there!

hot-in-texas · 02-20-2013, 07:02 PM

Wow Shari! If one or both of my sons ever comment that I look, I will know I have made it!

Oh how I look forward to shopping for something I actually want to wear!
