Hey Everyone
I thought I hit a plateau but it turns out, I just needed to change a few things up that I was doing and really get back into the following the program to a tee. I was really happy at weigh in tonight, the extra hard work paid off! Be sure to read the articles I sent out last week, they came in handy more than I thought they would.

So this weekend, we did some summer cleaning. I have a walk in closet that I haven't been able to "walk into" for some time now. I had all these clothes that I don't wear piled up and nothing to do with them. So I decided that all my " Old Michele" clothes had to go!! I was going to throw them all in bags when I thought, no wait, I want to be able to SEE how far I've come. So I started stacking all the clothes at the edge of my bed. It took me some time to get all the clothes out and organized. When I was done, I stood back and looked at the pile. I actually started to tear up, not sure what came over me. I just thought to myself the pile represented so many years of being unhappy, unhealthy and not myself and the pile was going to FINALLY be gone out of my life. I attached a picture of the pile, as well as the picture of them all bagged up. The big bags, I am going to keep the clothes. I hope never to wear them again but as most of you know as so on as I reach goal weight- Matt and I plan to start a family. So those "Old Michele" clothes will come in handy for those 9 months. The rest I am giving away to Purple Heart. I did make sure to keep my "biggest size" shirt, pants and jeans. Once I reach lifetime- I want to take pictures with my "Old Michele" clothes on- like Jared on those Subway commercials!!!! he he he. I am a visual person so seeing where I was and where I am now- just really kicked my spirits into high gear and made me challenge myself more than ever to loose these last 4 lbs. Check out my other blog for this week's recipes.
