Well, the good news keeps rolling in! The scale this morning read 188, which marks another ten pounds to be rid of in the quest to lose 100. I’m 4/5 of the way there and today had another opportunity to wear my picture-taking-progress-page-updating shirt.
I have updated my Progress Photos page with another picture. This infamous blue shirt now hangs on me and falls off my shoulder when I lean to one side or the other. I don’t know if I mentioned it before, but the blouse comes with a coordinating spaghetti-strap tank that goes under it. I don’t like wearing tank tops because my arms are too flabby (and in the past I always wore the bras that have wide straps — which obviously do not look right with thin-strap tanks and camis) but I’m now reconsidering. The form-fitting cami actually looks pretty good now that my “form” has a more pleasing shape!
A couple of other things I notice about this photo:
- My arms are hanging straight down and don’t have to “bend” to account for the width of my torso.
- There is daylight between my thighs when I’m standing up straight — meaning my legs aren’t so fat that they join in the middle.
Oh, the little things that make me smile.
Make sure you scroll to the bottom to see the latest picture, as I have them displayed in descending order.

Even though I’m sure you want to wear the same clothes so you can see a comparison, I think you need to change them! They’re WAY too baggy on you now; you’re lost in them! Way to go!
Ha ha! You’re right. I only wear this shirt to have my picture taken and then I change into something else.
WHOO HOO! I agree, the clothes are too big. . . that’s always a great NSV! Congrats and have a great weekend.
