I am so proud of myself. I can't keep my pants on!
They keep falling down because I have lost some weight. I felt so good today when I had to go to my doctors appointment and the nurse weighed me! Since I was last at the doc's office I lost 13 pounds! Yippie! Now figure in I was in the very begining of a pregnancy last time I was there so after the visit I gained a lot with being pregnant .. I had to get back to pre pregnancy weight AND lose some extra to count the 13 pounds! All day today I have been having to pull up my pants. I should have worn a belt but I threw my pants on without thinking about it. The same pants I am wearing used to be tight and I always worried my big butt would rip them out from stretching them at the seams! No more worries now!!! When my doctor first saw me he said "wow you lost weight and look healthy I see you got a nice tan going too". This of coarse before the lecture on how high my blood pressure is! So he put me on some new medicine for my blood pressure and one to help me with my panic attacks .. that he thinks are happening due to my obscenly high blood pressure. So I go back in two weeks for a total physical and pap smear (oh yippie). I am hoping to report more weight loss by then! :)
When I walked into work today the first thing my boss said was "wow you look good in that shiny shirt you got on did you lose more weight". This made me feel good ... I was like in fact I did! The shirt I am wearing I bought at a clearance sale at the end of last season for like $2. It said it was my size but when I tried it on at home it was too small .. now it fits perfectly! I am having a good day though. The weather is beautiful outside sunny and warm and I am feeling more and more healthy and confident since I have lost some more weight!
Umm .. actually a few of my friends have suggested my new glow is not just from the weight loss and the tanning but they think maybe I am in love. I don't know .. its possible but it is nice to have a new boyfriend who is constantly telling me how beautiful I am and how much he loves me and how he KNOWS we were meant to be together! :)

Congrats on it all!
Have a GREAT day, Dena!
Thanks!
That is great news that you are losing weight & doing so in a healthy way too - keep it up & reach your goal~
Hey pull up those pants!
And I now have a great idea to solicit some positive comments when I need them. First chance I'm going out and buying a pair of jeans 2 sizes too big, wear them without a belt and keep tugging on them all say. Who's not gonna say I lost weight. You've inspired me. Maybe we should lauch a business together and call it: "Complimentary Jeans, Inc." Whadda think.
Sometimes high blood pressure is inherited. I hate when doctors brush things off, or blame them on weight. Funny when you lose and then they cannot say that...lol
You should try yoga. A good friend of mine took that up after panic attacks she got from witnessing 9/11. She said its really helped her.
