After talking to the awesome Trudi on the weekend, I realised that I had never ever taken my "fat pants" out of the bag I had banished them to when I started the journey...
I'm not sure why, but I always had a fear that I would be disappointed if I looked at them...
I was sure that I wouldn't have been "small" enough to do it any justice - if that makes sense?
Now that I have made peace with where I am on the journey, I could finally dig the pants out, and take the photos that I have been anxious about taking in the past.....
Here is a really old picture of when I was fat enough to wear the jeans...
I was tipping the scales at about 162kgs, and I thought the jeans looked OK on me.
Actually, that is a bit of a lie, I thought the jeans looked GOOD on me!!!
I remember one night, I even wore a white t-shirt TUCKED IN to them!!!
What was I thinking???
By the time I started teh weight loss rollercoaster, these jeans were tight, and the inner thighs have just about been worn right through from my thighs rubbing together constantly.
They are a mens size 50 - that is a 50 inch waist.
OUCH!
And here are the famous "FAT JEANS" tonight.....
I thought about getting Jeremy in the other leg, but then we realised that there would be no one to take the picture!
Wow.....
What a difference huh?
Wow girl am lost for words.... and fantastic to hear you had such a great weekend away :-)

ReplyDeleteHi Jo. I have checked in occasionally on your blog after my daughter told me about your amazing journey. What an achievement! How great it must feel to take a photo like that. Well done, you are one incredible lady that's for sure!! Kay, Christchurch.
ReplyDeleteOMG! Check out your face in the pics too! So bloody happy!
ReplyDeleteIn the last pic when u r looking down - u look like pink!!!
Very amazing! And from the photo of you in the wetsuit and other weekend photos, it seems like you are perhaps regaining a bit of muscle and still loosing small amounts of fat over this last month, because you are looking fantastic, especially your lovely shoulders and your cheekbones, and from your smile it is like you are adjusting to the new physique, so yep perfect timing on this picture indeed. from Jasmine
