Dropping Sizes and My Wedding Ring

It's really hard to see that I've lost weight. Sure I've seen the pounds drop on the scale, but to me, I'm the same old Ashlyn. I guess I was waiting for an "A HA!" moment when I would look in the mirror and see a 5'10 women with a nice waist line and defined shoulders (what ever that looks like). Surprise! That hasn't happened but I have noticed a few changes and that makes me feel so ecstatic and proud. Mom and I went shopping yesterday and I reached for the the same size that I used to wear. My mom grabbed some smaller sizes "just in case". To my surprise I dropped three sizes!! Not 5'10 yet though...

Another thing besides my size that is dropping, is my wedding ring. It slips right off my finger, which is a new thing because when we got married it was a little tight!

Here is a recipe that I can't wait to try, because I can have Carrots, but not potatoes or sweet potatoes.


My Joys for today:

  • Getting new clothes for School! "(Thanks mom for your help and listening to my constant whining of "Does this fit me right?" "What matches this?" "Is this my waist?")
  • Although today is my last day, I've spent a wonderful two weeks with my parents!
This Picture is for them!

  • I get to see Prince Charming tomorrow!
What are your Joys for today? Leave me a comment!

Hugs!
Ashlyn
