OT/OOC

I can tell I have lost inches. I put my underwear on this morning by putting both legs through one leg hole and was able to pull it all the way up to my waist.

This year I resolved to get into better shape. There were three things bothering me. I could look down when standing straight and still see my belly under my boobs. And I'm not one of the flatter variety of fems. When I went clothes shopping, I had to shop on the other side of the store for nice things, because I could not fit into them. That means I went over a size 18, and broke into tears in the dressing rooms. The bathroom scale told me I was over 200 pounds. And I resolved that something had to change.

This April, I joined Curves. Just the exercise everyday would be enough to keep me from growing, but could I possibly lose anything? Well, I've lost 10 inches, so far. But the scale at the gym hasn't changed much. However, if I weigh myself at my lightest (after that time of the month just ends, after a shower, before breakfast, after the morning potty run) I now weigh 196, which is gratifying.

Two weeks ago, I started the Curves diet. Let's see if that helps. And Curves is having a promotion for the month of December. They are having 4-people teams try to lose as much as possible or maintain as much possible for the month. I did get into a team, which includes the manager. I'd think she has to recuse herself, but apparently not. Perhaps that will be encouraging. We shall see.  ¶ 6:46 AM
