      I've controlled myself by trying on three items of clothing I want to be in by Christmas! For that to happen, I think I will have to start cutting it off.

        Back AWAY from the GOAL PANTS! lol. You guys, this challenge is a lesson in and of itself. Not only are you going to keep legal through halloween AND thanksgiving, you are teaching yourself reserve in something other than food. That being the goal pants. You can try them on when it's over.

            I'm also starting to get scared that my "after" pics will not look any different! What a bummer that will be ..... better not let that happen.

                Well, bought a new pair of jeans at thrift store (4 bucks they're like totally brand new!)I put them on...cuz I couldn't try them on at the store... and I laughed and laughed at my muffin top! There was a time when I'd have cried... thanks everyone for helping me to accept who I am and like myself anyway... Being able to laugh at myself, I think is a big big step and having this kind of support is what made that possible! I hope I'll fit into them nicely one day... but ya know what... I didn't get all depressed or feel all bad about myself or start in on the negative self talk... that's progress. I'm so glad I can take these things in stride now and have a healthy perspective on my body.
                hugs all around!

                  This is an outstanding post, Liz! I am so proud of your attitude.

                  Hey, the rest of you - Thanksgiving is a long time away! We can do this thing. I love this affirmation that I used during the I AM WORTH IT Challenge. It says:

                  Great effort springs naturally from great attitude.

                  Let's all have a little faith, as Jen suggested. Let's do what we know we need to do, and be proud of our choices. Let's kick some butt!

                  At the time that I posed in my goal pants for the entry pics here, I was wearing a size 10 jeans and the goal pants are a 6 in the same brand of jeans. Yesterday I wore my new size 8 jeans in the same brand to work. They looked awesome. So, I am pretty jazzed about the prospects of fitting into my 6's at the end of the challenge.

                  Good luck, everybody!

                    That's so cool, Hopejoy & Mitzi! I love hearing awesome moments like the one you both had

                    I put on a pair of 12/14 pants yesterday and even though I had the muffin top going on there, the main part of putting the pants on was that I was able to put the pants on. lol...

                        Hopejoy- it is so awesome to feel that "grounded" acceptance of where you're at -a feeling that's been gone for a longtime sometimes huh? We are all going through a lot of stuff here as my MIL passed recently- but as I'm too tired to put on makeup to go out-etc (that was a no-no forever) I'm feeling accepting and patient with myself-good changes despite stuff. It really is good to see yourself on a path that you know is going somewhere positive- and in your control. Hey Mitzi and Apple- congrats on the feel goods and the smaller pants girls. You are both are (of course) very cute! I did weigh yesterday as I said I would. Surprisingly.. down 4 pounds to 156 which is 6 lbs away from my first goal. Yup -I'm happy with that. This computer is trash so I'll have to post as I can. We rock ladies!!! Gigi

                          I am wearing my muffin top pants at work today. I had to wear a loose shirt to hide the muffin, but they are not skin tight anymore so I was happy i decided to show them off at work. My admin asst just laughed and laughed when i strolled in and annouced "i am wearing my muffin pants and I can still breathe".

                            Yikes! Glad I'm not you when Officer Disco from the Muffin Butt Police comes after you! I'm gonna go hide now.

                            I haven't tried my goal pants on AGAIN, but some new pants that I just bought and were too tight a month ago are hanging on me today!!! Glad I didn't pay much for them, but I really liked them.

                            Yeah for this challenge!!!
