Either my jeans are getting bigger, or… ๐
When I started OA I could barely get into my jeans. Today I pulled them off without even undoing the buttons.
What I’m doing is working. I’m nowhere near perfect with my food plan, but I’m definitely improving, and the weight is coming off as a result.
Now I’m starting to imagine how much weight I could lose – and how fast – if I actually did everything I’m supposed to.
Imagine if:
- I ate what I say I will eat, and nothing else
- I listened to a podcast or attended a meeting every day
- I did 1 hour exercise every day.
The results would be incredible, instead of just good.
I’m doing okay. I am attending a meeting or listening to a podcast pretty much every day now, and I read OA literature pretty much every day too. My food is improving and I’m not bingeing nearly so much. I generally manage to avoid my trigger foods.
But I’m still eating things I shouldn’t eat. I’m still eating a bit of chocolate, and still having some dairy.
When I compare myself now to how I was before OA, pretty much everything was different.
And the proof is in the pudding… Or in the jeans ๐๐
I hope and I think the next time I buy jeans I’ll be a size down. Certainly some of my tops are starting to look a bit too big on me. I’ll keep wearing them until they look positively sack-like. Then I’ll buy new.
I’m feeling positive and happy today. Maybe I can do this!
