New clothes

Even though this week showed a .8 weight gain, I'm trying hard to not be overly discouraged.  I know I'm not moving enough and my appetite has been through the roof.  However, I found great motivation today.  Amy and I took Emma shopping, and I bought some new jeans.  All week, if I wore jeans my coworkers were commenting about my jeans being too big.  Well, I'm extremely excited for 2 reasons.  One is I bought jeans 2 sizes smaller than I've been wearing.  Secondly, it's the size I've always dreamed of being.  A size 12.  Now if you're a size 3 person, you think oh my gosh is 12 big!  But for someone who started wearing a 26/28, a size 12 is a dream. One I've now achieved.  It makes me now believe that I will get to goal weight.  Because if I can achieve my dream of a size of pants, I can achieve my dream of hitting goal weight.  Stay tuned because it WILL come even if there are bumps in the road and even if I have weeks like this one where I gain weight.
