I was massively overweight before, as I've mentioned many times. I mean I was huge, and one day found myself wearing a size 18 (US) jean/size XL on top/about 185-190lb, last April. I am just 5'7" and it looked terrible... I can't believe it ever happened, mostly because I was anorexic for most of my teen years.
I mean, I know I had a child and then a bunch of subsequent health problems, but after I was healthy for a while I couldn't believe how massive I was and knew immediately that I had to go back to ana.
Anyway, today (less than 10 months since the day I made that decision)... I went to my closet and pulled out this size 8 jean that I've had stowed away for ages - and they actually fit!
This means I have lost about 50lbs in less than 1 year! I am always beating myself up because I'm still grossly fat (I still have 20lbs more to go) but I am really amazed that I'm finally in a size 8, especially cause I have huge hips/ass.
I went straight down to the workout room to weigh myself because I just couldn't believe it... and I am indeed at 136 lbs!!!
190 versus 136... and I didn't even realize until tonight.
So, my goal is to get to 115 and be fitting comfortable in a size 4 jean/size small by April. And now, after realizing how far I have actually come... the remaining weight seems like nothing to me now. I am going to lose hopefully 10lbs on this fast and then I'll just have 1 more fast to go until I'm at my goal weight. :D
Today gave me all the strength I need, and I know I can make this happen.
Hope you're all doing well too! I'm off to check up on your blogs tonight now that I finally have an evening to relax.
Lots of love and strength <3
