Guest guest Posted July 26, 2003 Report Share Posted July 26, 2003 Hello everyone, Last evening, it was absolutely torrential rain here in NW England but not wanting to break my commitment to my workouts, I decided to go for my walk anyway but obviously I didn't want to get drenched out in the rain. I bought a Columbia jacket on my last trip to the USA back in April, it was a little *snug* shall we say when I got it but I told myself that I'd get into it and it would serve as a little motivator. I packed it away when I got back and pretty much forgot about it, so last night I decided to get it out and try it but to be honest, I really didn't think it would fit me. It fitted me !!!!! Ok, not perfectly but a damn sight better than it did in april :-) I have changed my training in the past month or so and I believe its really paying off :-) Hope everyone has a great sunday Best wishes What we see depends mainly on what we look for. --Sir Lubbock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It fitted me !!!!! Best wishes whehew, way to go, ! It's great to see the results. I actually considered buying a smaller size so that I " shrink " into it as an incentive. Haven't decided about that yet, ha. We're having a nasty day in NY, hot and humid. I went for my walk at about 8:30 while it was still cool. Next week should be better.

I had an even better one this evening, I was on a flying visit to my parents and a cousin of mine was visiting and they said, " You are losing weight Dave, I can clearly see the difference from the last time I saw you " My mother added " Yes, you CAN see the difference in you " Needless to say, I was grinning from ear to ear on the way home !!!

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2003 Report Share Posted July 28, 2003 Way to go , I know that felt great to fit into something that was too small. Before long, it will not just fit, but be roomy! I was just able to buy a smaller size last weekend, and it was so liberating! I am still waiting to fit into my favorite (and only) pair of jeans. I tried them on the other day, and could (just barely) get them buttoned, but couldn't quite zip them yet (at least not without sacrificing BREATHING!
