Hi Ladies! I'm on a mission to lose all of the weight I gained when I was pregnant FIVE years ago! About time, I know! LOL! I haven't worn a swimsuit since pre-pregnancy and this summer we're going camping with my SIL and her family and I want to swim!
I've lost 14 pound so far. I find if I stick with healthy food and exercise, I actully lose weight fairly quickly (3-5 pounds per week). Prior to this I ate really horribly and never exercised! I tried on a few shirts this morning that I purchased a few weeks ago and they are too big. I have been cursed with a large chest, so I lose weight there first, so my shirts are starting to get too big and are starting to look like maternity clothes! And I do NOT want to look pregnant because we've been trying for #2 for almost 2 years, we've been tested and have a variety of fertility issues, so the last thing I want is someone to think I'm pregnant when I'm not but really want to be!!
What do you ladies do re clothing. I plan on going bra shopping this weekend and buy one for now. I figure one will get me through until I need to get another size. I still have a lot of weight I want to lose, so I can't go out and buy a whole new wardrobe! But I still want to look nice each day. My pants/skirts are still doing okay. Getting looser, but I don't think they look too big yet.
Thanks!
And congrats to all of you!!
