[QUOTE="Abbey, post: 124264, member: 179"] Since last Feb., I've now lost 40 pounds. I have refused to buy new clothes as I thought it would jinx me. (My friends are saying..."Geez...you look like a rat in elephant's clothes."):raspberry-tounge: Today I went to my favorite store, Mervyns, to get a new suit for an interview. I don't like to shop at all. (Malls scare me.) I never try anything on...just grab and go. So, I go and grab an outfit or two then come home. Nothing fits!! I was at a size 14 (ummm...tight fitting), went for size 10. Still too big!! Had to run back and exchange all for a size 8. I can't remember when I fit into that size. Kind of made me feel good, though. I've been able to keep it off for awhile now. Having easy child working all the time has actually helped. I don't feel compelled to make the big family dinner every day. When it's just husband and I, I just eat when I want to. I'm not a snacker. husband is. Ugh. Some days I'll just nibble...other days I'm ravenous. I'm sure this is not probably the heathliest way to lose weight, but it works for me. I don't do junk food, sodas, etc. When I eat, I eat good food. Just feeling a tad good right now. Abbey [/QUOTE]
