LUCKY #6
Right off the bat I'm going to say I don't want to sound conceited or showy. Really I don't! It's just that so many of you have asked about my weight loss progress that I just wanted to update you. Well, here's the bragging part. Ahem, I have lost 20 pounds and countless inches! I have gone from basically a size 12 to a 6. I bought a pair of Lucky Jeans the other day. The buttonfly ones that say "Lucky You" on the inside flap when you open up the buttons. Well, they're a 6! Just pulled them up, no problems.
Anyway, I couldn't have done any of this without my fabulous trainer and friend Kay Yasin. She has pushed my body to limits I never thought I had. She has been the buddy I needed when I thought I couldn't do it anymore. Kay began working with me during the Bally's Fitness Challenge this spring. (Check out Kay's bod on Pat's blog from last month.) She has made eating right and exercise a part of my life. If she can do it for me, she can do it for anybody.
So there you have it! My once whiny blogs about how obese I am have turned into bragging blogs about how non-obese I am. All of you working so hard to get it off and keep it off, think about the Lucky #6.
I think I'll go have a shake.... a high-protein chocolate Slim Fast. :)
