Trupeach I dont mean to sound gross but sometimes if I am dieting my BM's get irregular so I drink some hot super dieters tea about ever other night and it really helps. Did you hear that when Elvis died he had 25 pounds of "poop" in him? KEEP REGULAR.

I was down 8 pounds by the 17th,but I have gained 3 the next day and stayed here for the last two weeks.
But on the positive, I'm down from a 20w/ 22w to a 16/16w. I have given about a dozen pairs of pants to a charity thrift. My shoes are also getting to big for me, I gave away two pairs, and threw away a third pair because they no longer fit. I am now wearing clothes that I wore about 10 years ago. I had gotten rid of most of them, but I kept a few timeless pieces, that I really liked. I lost weight so fast this summer that I skipped over my size 18's. Some of the clothes I had I can still wear, they just look better. And some of my t-shirts I use for exercising and they now sag on me.
I can't buy new clothes yet, I have to save a bit first. I thought I would go down and have a a few pieces altered. That doesn't cost as much as new. I don't really want to make a big investment in a lot of clothes as I need to get to a 10/12, and I can't afford to buy a new wardrobe now and again then. But I will have to buy new bras here pretty soon.

To all how are doing so well Congratulations! Tru please don't be disappointed with this last week I have been playing with five pounds for the past two months. Down one week then up the next. I think it's the exercise and water intake or maybe just being female. Whatever the reason we have to keep trying. God puts challenges to us to make us stronger. Make him proud and keep on working on the new you! Stepping down from soapbox. I say this with love in my heart.
