Old Shorts

Ok. So I tried on an old pair of shorts today (forget that their hideous and camouflage – I’m going out to mow my yard; cut me some slack) and they buttoned up with no problem!

This is significant for me because when I was heavier these shorts used to fit me the tightest. I literally had to take in a huge breath and suck in my gut to even attempt to button them. In fact, I stopped wearing them altogether the past 2 years because they were simply too small and I was tired of being in denial.

Anyway, I’m off to mow the yard for the first of what I’m sure will be many times this year. Just thought I’d share.

*Yes, for those of you paying attention, that IS the godawful FSU shirt that I’ll have to wear if I lose my FitBet with Rick hanging on the wall behind me. Rachel put it there for me to see everyday as a reminder to stay focused. Eyes on the prize!
