Cannot contain the woot!

OMIGOSH YOU GUYS

 

I am having a very big week.

 

Sunday I weighed in at 50 lbs lost!

 

Also Sunday I went on a 6+ mile hike, and I didn't have to ask for a break or slow down or sit down a single time! (Well, I sat to eat my lunch at the turn around point. But not because I needed to sit or I might pass out.)

 

Today I put on a pair of size 6 jeans! Zipped and buttoned! I can't say they fit, but I had doubts I'd ever even cram into a size 6 again.

 

I have never been very good with running. I get shin splints, and I'm slow. My best 5K time was 57 minutes and I'd never done a mile in less than 15 minutes. Tonight, I did a mile in 13 minutes, 33 seconds in run/walk intervals, with a top speed of 7.5 mph!

 

I seriously feel like a superhero right now!

Holy pants Batman!

Sorry, it was the "I feel like a superhero" comment, just couldn't help myself.

That's an amazing amount to lose, how log did it take you?

verra nize.  Great job!  Buy those pants (if they're cheap) and hang them up to remind yourself of your victory.  Or, um, you could put up a photo of yourself on the hike, which would get fewer stares from visitors.

Are we talking about trousers, or pants? (Pants = panties in the UK) Coz that WOULD get a few stares....

Thanks! It's been about 6 months - still have some work to do, but I'm not complaining. =D

....I don't know why I'm embarrassed, but I am. They're actually my pants. I have an entire wardrobe in 6-8ish - from pajamas to black tie. I packed everything into a plastic bin 7 years ago and kind of forgot about it. I didn't realize how small they were until I'd lost 30lbs and pulled them out to see if anything fit.

I could combine both ideas... As a sort of celebration and reclamation of my pride in my self I took a picture in my pants (in the UK sense) on top of a mountain I climbed about a month ago. It's from the back, but I'm not sure if I could post it here.

Pants or trousers ... with this success, I am sure you'll look good in both!

 

Congratulations, this is really awesome!

So much wooot!

 

That is so ace, you're hard work is really paying off

 

I think, in true superhero style, you should wear your pants over your trousers

 

Or get a cape!
