Hey ladies - thought I would get the ball rolling this morning. First, thanks to Matatora for the eye-opening and thought- and discussion-provoking quiz in the separate thread. I for one know that I have a lot of issues with weight, and I definitely had a borderline eating disorder when I was dancing, although my therapist I think referred to what I had in college (post dancing) as "disordered eating." I think growing up as "the fat girl" was hugely traumatic and that its going to take a really long time of managing to not be fat to no longer see myself that way.
Regardless, I am making steady progress towards getting back to a healthy weight - I had my weigh-in this morning and lost another 2 lbs (at least I''m consistent...) making for a total of 18.5 lbs. I leave on Saturday for the East Coast to visit the future in-laws, and so I guess by next Tuesday when I go dress shopping with FMIL and future grandma-in-law (I''m really excited about this) it will be close to or at 20 lbs down, which was my goal
Also, the size-8 jeans I got a couple of weeks ago at Nordstrom''s that were tight when I bought them are starting to feel loose. Getting back into size 6 pants will be a major victory for me - I still have a few of my favorite pairs hanging in my closet waiting for me...
I went to the gym yesterday, will go again tonight, just mixed cardio both times because I have to get home (tonight to interview a kitty-sitter).
Hope everyone else''s workouts/eating plans are going well.
