PICTURES!! DAY 37!! Sorry, I kinda left you hanging!
It is the 37th day, and I've lost 21 pounds! I'm happy. I really WANTED to lose faster than this, but I'm not complaining! I'm planning to UP the exercise this next 30 days in hopes of DROPPING weight in a HURRY! I guess you want to see pictures right? OK, to be honest...I can't tell a difference by looking at the pictures. I CAN tell a BIG
difference in my clothes!!! They are SOOOOO baggy. BUT, I don't want to spend any money on a new wardrobe just yet. I want to shrink a BUNCH more, before I do that!...Well, here goes...comparison pic number 1! (Click on the picture for a closer look!)OK, I guess I've lost some in my face. I always lose there first, and that's a GOOD thing. I hate how pudgy my face looks in that top picture. Even to this DAY, I look at my fat pics, and think..."WHO is that?" I've been fat for 5 years, and I STILL can't believe that is ME in that fat body! I guess it really takes the brain a long time to catch up to what is going on with the body. AND, why is it, that when I look in the mirror, I don't look THIS fat??? I mean I thought the camera was adding like 50 pounds, but then I noticed that when I look at pictures of OTHER people, they don't look 50 pounds heavier. So much for that theory! OK,
here's one more picture. See how baggy my clothes are now? I like that! I'm gonna hide in these big clothes, for a few more months, and then drop them, and be SLIM. WOW, won't that shock the socks off some people! Ha ha ha haDid you notice my ticker says 59.5 pounds to go??? That is hilarious! It just sounds so much better than 60 more, or 70 more, which it probably SHOULD be,
and probably WILL be before I decide to stop! I really would rather be 155, but it's been a LONG time since I weighed that, and the body changes a LOT over time. SO it just might be that 165 is where I'll want to stay. I've been very happy at that weight before, and I'm not as concerned about getting into a size 5, as I was when I was 20. OK, enough rambling. I'll post another pic 20 pounds from now, and we'll see how that looks! Thanks for stopping by!

Donna, you are looking great in your pictures. I love your hair, too! Keep on keeping on with the weight loss!

Donna, here's something to raise your spirits even further while you're losing weight. Go to your favourite second-hand shop and outfit yourself there with "new" clothes every 3 or 4 weeks. You can simply exchange what you've already bought there. That's what I did; saved a bundle and had the pleasure of visible evidence of my shrinking body. Everything FIT; I didn't look like a credible witness in a murder trial. And nobody has to know the clothes are not brand new.
Thanks ladies! I like the consignment shop idea too. Thanks for reading me Mary!
Hello Donna! You don't know who I am, but I really do like your website. You are such an inspiration to me... I live in Europe and I have recommended your site to some of my friends who are also on the Cambridge diet like I am (3 weeks now). I have also been reading the Cambridge Message Board frequently and I have to admit that I was very shocked to read that NASTY comment when you had posted the address to your website. I could not believe my eyes!!! How can someone be so selfish and jealous?? Information will make you inspired and I can promise you that you have inspired me and my friends!! I found your address on the messageboard, so I am so greatful that you posted it there. I can see that some of the other women reacted the same way as I did, so you have mine and their support. Good luck with your diet Donna. I will keep on reading your comments. You look stunning in your pics! Take care, Karin.
Karin,
Thank you so much! I'm so glad my blog has been a help to you. I was very unsure about putting myself "out there" so to speak. I wouldn't have even started this blog, if I hadn't hoped that it might possibly HELP someone else who has been struggling with losing weight. Losing weight is a HARD thing to do, and it takes LOADS of inspiration. Thanks so much for reading, and sharing my blog. I wish you GREAT success in your weightloss efforts! God Bless You!
Donna
