Glimpse in the mirror

I was wearing a shirt I just got the other day, along with some jeans that are now my favorites... And they are skinny jeans (something I never thought in a million years I would wear).... I walked past the mirror in my bathroom. That mirror was avoided for so long. I didn't even want it in there... And Monty had talked about a full length mirror too. Heck-to-the-NO! 

But last night, I walked past it... Saw someone in There... And for a split second though "she's pretty!"... 
It caught me off gaurd.. And then I stopped, as I was about to walk out the door when this happened, and looked at her. 
She was normal, she was wearing a size small shirt, she was smiling a real smile... She was pretty! 

She was me.

Transformation Tuesday


From this.... 
To this! 

Stats:           Before    Sept 2013
Weight:        242         162
Jeans size:   20           10
Shirt size:      XXL         S
Shoe size:     9             8
Ring size:      10           7
Bra size:        40DD      36D


Sometimes my numbers on the scale don't really move but there are other numbers moving! And rapidly changing. 

-80

This 162 was a number I always said "oh if I could get to the 160 range... That would be great!" All the while knowing it was the "one day" "yeah right" "just another one day, but it'll never happen" number. 
Well it's here. It feels good. It feels surreal and I have to still convince my photos are of me. 
That's last November to now! 

New style

NEVER imagine wearing what I do now... Size and style... 
Skinny jeans
Size SMALL shirt 
More skinny jeans
A dress! 

A different kristi

There was someone buried in there. Someone dying to get out. 
Fun!
Funny! (She cracks a lot of fat jokes now, only about herself)
Happy!
Photogenic! 
{mostly} Confident!
Loves shopping, for herself!
Smiles a lot! 

A whole new person! 




What does S mean

This is what I bought last night with my birthday money. This time last year I was in XXL. That's a far cry from where I am now. Where do I go from here... I think I'd fall over if I was an XS. Don't think I will be because my boobs are still bigger. Ok, big enough to need a small....
Feels good.
