I firmly believe that it is perfectly ok for sexy women to have curves (real ones) and since there has been some concern as to whether or not a goal of 135 is too thin for my body-type I thought I would place a tangible, visual representation of where I'm headed with this weight-loss journey.
Mary McCormack is a kick-butt and takes names actress on the show "In Plain Sight" (which is great, by the way and airs on USA). She's thin, toned, and has a realistic yet amazing body; therefore she is my goal-model. She's 5'8" and I'm 5'7". She weighs approx 150 lbs and has a significantly larger cup size than I do but very similar bone structure. So here is my pledge ... if I look like this when I get to 150, I'll stop there and be MORE THAN HAPPY with it!!!!!
It's a GREAT goal to have.
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking today.
What weight CAN I get down to?
I remeber in HS i was a size 11/12
I am 5'4 and big boned. So I will NEVER be a size 2. I am just not built that way. So WHEN I get down to goal and make it into a size 9/10 I have no idea what that weight will be because i don't ever remeber being that size. Even now when I step on the scale at just a 20 LB loss I have not been there in over 15 years!!! So it's a whole new thing too.
When I met my husband in 1995 I was at a healthy weight and wearing an 11/12. Then in one year and when I got married i was at my heaviest of 200 + pounds. I have pretty much been there since.
So this is all so new to me and a GREAT feeling. So great that I will never go back.
I have not found my "goal model"
I have never been one to look in a magazine and say i want to look like her. I know how unrealistic that is.
These girls pay people a lot of money to have somoen buy and prepare their meals and pay big bucks to have someone work them out.
Sure there are people over the years I was envious of.
But I have not found that ONE person that I can say I want to look like. But when I find her I will post a pic on my blog.
Yeah I was just discussing the best way to set a goal with my mom because she's one person who thinks 135 is too thin for someone with big German bone structure like we have in our family...(thanks gramps!).
ReplyDeleteI honestly can't remember ever being a size that I was happy with in my adult life so trying to set goals for myself is really hard ... I just know that I don't want to be the way I am anymore.
HoTNeSS!
