Another milestone mark

Today is my three month "anniversary".  It's amazing how much my life has changed in those three months.  The biggest change of all....I've lost the small child that has been dragging on my ass (and by that I mean the 57 pounds I have lost!)  I've gone from a size 26/28 to an 18.  That's almost out of the plus sizes, baby!  Halle-frickin-lujah!

In these three months, I've lost my taste for sweets and meat.  I can hardly believe it.  I make some sort of meat every night for my family, and if I have one bite that's a lot.  I just don't crave it like I used to.  The only meat I've really been tempted to eat has been chicken fingers or nuggets at a fast food joint.  Bad bad bad!  Luckily I'm too afraid to try anything deep fried.  And it used to be that after every meal, I'd crave something sweet.  I don't anymore.  I haven't had chocolate at all this whole time.  Well, a little chocolate milk once, but I don't think that counts.

It has always been a natural response to cross my legs when I sit.  I haven't been able to do that in a while.  I get a little smug now every time I sit down and cross my legs...because I can, and because when I do they actually cross comfortably.  I also find myself sitting with my arms crossed a lot.  I don't know why, but again, it's comfortable.  I haven't been able to cross my arms without looking or feeling like a moron because my arms were so fat and my boobs were so big. 

I'm definitely reaping the rewards...and I can't imagine how I'm going to feel another 50 pounds from now if already feel this good!
