20 kilo's down!!!!

Well I go there. I have shed 20 kilo's. I am absolutely dumbfounded really. I mean, where has it gone? I have almost lost the weight of my daughter!! It's amazing and I really can't explain how I am feeling. There are just too many emotions to describe it!! Ecstatic, relieved, happy, lighter, happier etc etc. I am sure I can name a heap more, but those are the ones that are coming to my mind at present!!

I went and had a bit of a splurge this week, well I should say a big splurge!!! I went shopping!!! WOO HOOO!! Us girls all like to shop, but when you have been restricted to 'big girl' and plus sizes for the last 10 years you don't enjoy shopping for clothes that much, but when you don't fit in 'plus' sizes anymore, it's a whole different feeling!! I was so ecstatic to walk into Suzanne Grae's and Rockman's and just fit into their clothes. It was such a great feeling!! I just want to keep going back for more because I know I can!! It's truly such a wonderful feeling!!!

On the subject of clothes and stuff, lets talk about shoes and shrinking feet. The last place that I expected to shrink was my feet / shoe size. I have gone from being size 9/10 to now a 7.5 / 8. Not that I am complaining or anything because I got to give away 14 pairs of shoes so i could make way for new shoes, it's just I hadn't even thought about smaller feet. But again, it's another ecstatic feeling!!

I spent most of the weekend going through all my drawers and walk in robes to remove the evidence of ever being a size 22 and it was a great feeling to just 'toss' it all on the floor. I went from having a full hanging wardrobe of 3 meters to about 30cm. I nearly passed out when I realised the the pile of clothes on the floor was as tall as me, but it wasn't a bad awful feeling, it was a great, fantastic feeling because it meant I had to replace them and go shopping!!!

I weighed myself at mum's on Monday and I weighed in at 106.5kgs, so the weight is still coming off, which is a good thing!! I've just been pretty slack about going to the gym, which is very naughty of me, I know!!! Maybe next week!!!
