Re: xfactor week 2 round 2

[Guest guest]

Carolyn there are so many haters out there when you lose weight it's unreal.  When I went from 235 to 165 I got all kinds of snarky and backhanded compliments.  Now I just take them as a feather in my cap.  It just means they wish you were doing as well as you are!

So proud of you!!!  Has DH noticed / said anything?

 

i finished up xfactor week 2 today!

this week i missed an ab workout (injury) and a cardio workout

(illness). i also didnt do as much walking as i wanted (lousy

weather). oh well, at least i didnt miss workouts because i was

just too lazy.

the week 2 xfactor workout seemed easier today, probably because

i know what is coming. i still had to modify some things but

certainly not enough to change the whole workout. if that ever

happens then it will be time to move onto something else...lol.

if i have time i will view workout 3 and list the exercises.

probably wont get around to it, so tomorrow's xfactor workout

will be a surprise.

my weight keeps going down... all-time low of 124.5 today, size

6/7 in pants, which completely amazes me because i have not

weighed anything close to that in 14 years (since i got pregnant

the first time). i was around 150 lbs, size 12/13, height 5'2,

so i get comments about being half of my size. interestingly,

most of the comments, both good and bad, come from people who are

over-weight. one man asked me if i had been ill other

people dont say anything or dont notice which is fine with me!

i dont have any clothes in this size except shorts and shirts.

so i desperately need to shop the second-hand stores for jeans

and black dress pants for work. i hit a shop yesterday and

bought shirts (50 cents each, couldnt resist) and a big red

handbag ($4 but is it fashionable? or tacky? not sure).... of

course all things that i dont need! LOL oh well, they cost

next to nothing so im not worried

That has to be such a good feeling, Carolyn. That weight sound perfect for you. I've had the same kind of different comments about my weight as well.

You've worked so hard. Be proud!!

way to go, Carolyn - it sounds like that is a great weight for you!!! I so wish I had more time to browse thrift stores, there are two nice consignment shops nearby, but I just never have time to browse - as a result - I haven't really bought anything - which is sort of good b/c i save $$, but bad b/c I end up wearing the same things over and over and over again. Most things that are "new" and in the stores right now don't fit me very well. I like the sound of the red handbag. I admit to having a purse fettish - I 'm not sure why! But I love purses...

Congratulations on the weight loss and dropping sizes! It's such a great

feeling!

I love going into the secondhand stores and consignment shops for clothes, too!

I've gone through several sizes since last summer,from a size 10/12(156 lbs)to a

size 4/6(123 lbs). I'm 5'4' tall. Those stores have perfectly good tops and

jeans (if you look around for awhile) for so cheap. And yes there are some cute

purses too! I just found one for $3 a couple weeks ago, and have gotten many

compliments on it. Next I have to find some shorts for the summer (this summer I

will actually wear shorts!)

This morning's workout was Bob Harper Pure Burn Super Strength, and it was so

hard. I hated most of it (but not really, because it was good for me!) Bob was

tough! One of the participants was almost crying through some of it. My muscles

are sore right now, but in a good way. I'll definitely do it again, because I

know I'll get good results.

Have a good night,

Ronda
