Proud of My Wife

Today my wife officially hit her 20 pounds lost mark and she is super excited about that.  Her ultimate goal is to lose between 40 and 45 pounds so this marks a significant milestone for her.  It is especially tough for her because I am so much bigger than her and I have so much more to lose that each week she is losing only a couple of pounds I'm losing many more.

I encourage her to look at the percentages because she's almost at 50% lost and I am somewhere around 23% lost and this makes her feel better LOL.  Regardless, I am very proud of her for sticking with it and doing this weight loss journey together.

This morning I caught her in her closet trying on clothes that she hasn't fit into in years or has never fit into since she bought it.  Case in point, she purchased a fantastic little police uniform for a halloween party a couple of years ago and she never fit into it.  It hung in her closet ever since.  Today, I think we can call it a "fit".  Good job baby!!

  4. She looks amazing!!! Congrats to her! About the weight loss time frame, you have to just try your hardest to keep thinking in the big picture scheme of it all. Sure it may be slow and frustrate you sometimes, but remember that when you lose all the weight, you'll then have just as hard of a time maintaining it. So you are on this path for the rest of your life, not just until you lose the weight. When you look at it like that, then the scale doesn't mean as much (but still means something lol). Hope that helps :) I've got 100 pounds to go so I know a lil something about patience! :)
