Low Carb Diva

May 20, 2011 - Day 9

I have been morbidly obese for at least 15 years. Not because of some medical reson but because I ate lots of junk. Not only did my waistline expand but I also stopped taking care of myself. I never bothered with makeup or doing my hair. My clothes resembled something a bag lady would wear and I just never thought about how I looked. Nor did I care.

This time I care but I do not want to buy a bunch of fat clothes that in a few months may be too big on me (fingers crossed). I wish I could do one of those I Dream of Jeannie head nods and fast forward 6 months from now where I know I will be a lot smaller than I am right now. So what is the solution?

Follow up:

I know some of you would say, "Buy the clothes and take care of yourself at this moment," but funds are tight and I truthfully do not want to do that. I guess the only compromise I can make right now is to keep the baggy clothes and just try and make myself look as presentable as possible from the neck up.

Anyone else have this problem too? I just feel like I am wearing a fat suit now and I can't find the zipper fast enough. This weekend let's all stick to our plan and be a few more days closer to reaching our weight loss goals.
