Shopping for clothes
Ugh I went to walk around the mall today to work off a big lunch I had and while there I decided to go try on jeans. Yuck what a mess. I have always hated clothes shopping, but buying jeans when you are overweight is brutal. Honestly, I cannot wait for the day when I am down a few sizes where I wont feel so bad about buying myself new clothes, no matter what I'm buying. Right now I have to shop in those specialty size stores and sometimes the stuff they are selling is pretty normal and not too bad, but mostly the clothes are overpriced and just ugly! I remember hating when I moved up a size here and there and I dreaded buying clothes when I finally reached size XL, but ohhhhh what I wouldnt give right now to fit into a regular size XL, lol. I mean I have literally dreamed about walking around in a mall, seeing something in the window and being glad that it came in a size XL. Isnt that something? I can remember very well, like it was yesterday thinking that I was sooo miserable to be wearing a size XL. This brings me to something that I have been giving alot of thought. GOALS Are goals helpful or hurtful? I am still thinking about it.

Lindy, goals are definitely helpful. Actually, they are a MUST. I read that we need to start out with small goals. I was just looking at my "WW pocket guide", (the little book we bring to weigh in) It says in there to make goals. It's on page 38. Lindy, you can lose the weight, you proved already you could. I know both William and Sonny are there to help you. I know how you feel. I'm struggling too. The meetings are helping me. I almost gave up the meetings because I felt like a failure. I started back and you are right about the people. They know we are struggling. We are there to encourage each other. They do have a lot of good ideas. I want us to help each other. For sure, you have already helped me. I didn't know what to do. You said you were going to WW. I started. I want you to be happy.
ReplyDeleteLindy, GOALS ARE A MUST. We need goals for everything we do in life. Start out with attainable goals. I'm glad you started back to the meetings. I went through the same thing a few weeks back. I was afraid to weigh in. Lindy, you helped me. I didn't know what to do. I still need a lot of help. I remember when William was here and he was talking to you on the phone and he was so proud of you making your 5% or 10%??? I thought WOW. I know you can do it again. I want us to help each other. I know both William and Sonny are there to help too.
