Lucybell33's Journal, 08 May 2008

A tiny bit up on yesterday, but so tiny as to be of no concern. I'm still delighted with the way my weight has gone so far this week!

Yesterday was a high cal day, although I kept it to just under 1,400 to allow for my current inactivity. I was pretty busy - caught up with a bit of housework in the morning (don't worry, only light duties like washing and ironing!) and then went to Winchester to have my stitches out (really no big deal, just a couple of eye-watering moments) and then on into town for some shopping! I managed to get a couple of bargainous pairs of jeans (in UK size 12 = US size 10!!) half price at only £15 (~$30) a pair, which was a great treat. I was so busy, it was quite a struggle to get all those calories in, although I did just about manage it!

Here's a piccie of me in one of my new pairs of jeans. Still looking a bit puffy, and very pale (think that might have partly been the light) - and you can see where most of the remainder of my weight lies, in my thunder thighs and hips!!



I'm back to work to day (thank goodness for the ability to work from home!), so lots to catch up on. However, it's another beautiful, sunny day here in Southampton, so I might just have to venture out for a quick walk in the fresh air at some point. Have a great day!

Hey you sexy thing! But there is definitely no thunder in those thighs. Not even a rumble! You have a lovely feminine figure and you should be proud of every inch of it! I'm glad the removal of the stitches went better than expected for you. I think that once you've been through childbirth, most everything else pales by comparison! You should definitely enjoy a walk in the sun wearing your skinny little jeans today. Take care!

Awww - thanks Evelyn! :) I am accepting of my body shape, because it's always been this way, even when I was <9 stone. Just looking forward to recommencing my workout schedule, so I can continue working on the jiggly bits! It's very warm today, so I have on my new skinny jeans and a teeny top, and I'm gearing up for a lunchtime walk around the park opposite my house - just hope I don't bump into any of the neighbours!!

Wow, you look great! And I love the top too! Hope you start to feeling even better, those surgeries are no fun at all!

Thanks Alaina! I'm actually feeling fine - just put a little bit of make-up on and straightened my hair a bit, and now I think I'm ready to face the world!! :)

I think you look wonderful!!!! Be proud!!! What thunder thighs??? All I see is a nice shape, you don't want to look like a board girl, curves are a "good" thing, lol... Keep it up, you're doing wonderfully!!

Thank you, Lori - I am proud of what I've achieved, and will live with my curves, although I just wish my boobs matched up with my hips. Hmmmm - could this be the next surgery project?? One for another year, I think!

Sa-Weetness! Love the new jeans!!! Hey, as my hubby says, "if aint got curves, I don't want it!" lol Well, curves are nice, even though we want them smaller! Size 10 is awesome... keep up the great work!

Aww - thanks everyone!! This is definitely a vast improvement from 10 months ago, in spite of the current black eyes, even though hubby is bemoaning the reduction in a couple of my curves! LOL, Lori, on that subject, I'll get back to you!!

Hot bod! That is such a cute top - and you have a perfect figure. I laughed at your 'jiggly bits' comment...that the perfect description of what I've got left!!!!

You look FABULOUS!! Love the top, love the jeans (and you got them on sale to boot!) Size 10 too....YAY!!!! Congrats!

Thank you! :) You know, everyone always remarks on that top. I've had it ages, even used it as a maternity top! However, I think at last it's actually fitting properly for the first time!!

Aw, I'm glad to hear that having the stitches removed wasn't too bad at experience! Sounds like you had a great time shopping and even better for getting new jeans as bargains. You are looking fabulous in them and I love your top too. You just stand proud of those curves, as I'm sure if we asked most blokes they would win every time. You are looking great though, so you just keep up that excellent work... it's getting exciting that we are getting SO close to goal!! ;o)
