(6 months into challenge)

WEIGHT LOSS SINCE PREVIOUS UPDATE: zero pounds
TOTAL WEIGHT LOST: 39 pounds
CURRENT WEAKNESSES: Starbucks’ Eggnog Latte and Crunchy Cheetos

I must be completely narcissistic to continue to update this Body Challenge….even when I pathetically failed at losing a single pound in the last 2 months!
Not bad considering how much (and how often ) I ate last month while on vacation. Wil thinks that if I attempted to exercise regularly, my weight loss would be significant.

Nevertheless, my body shape has changed and I am starting to feel like my old self. However, I’ve come to realize that no matter how much weight I lose, I will probably never wear my old clothes again. Sad. Looking through my closet in SoCal, I noticed that aside from jackets, coats, sweaters, and formal dresses, my style in clothes have changed. I like my tops much longer and my bottoms much looser. Pregnancy can do that to you.
Another sad realization is that I’ve lost the bountiful bustline that came with breastfeeding. And to add insult to injury, my chest is smaller than before!

After this holiday season, I’m really going to apply myself. *cross fingers*
11 pounds to go. Wish me luck.
