Had a VERY pleasant surprise today. So, yesterday I bought that pair of size 12 jeans, right? So today I go over to lalalooh's place and she has me try on a pair of size 10 jeans that she was getting rid of. GUESS WHAT. They fit, and you could have knocked me over with a feather.

Fifty pounds down!

This is the first time I'll be observed teaching a male student; it was my idea, actually, since both of my bosses are singers and perhaps they'll have some advice. I' ( Read more... )

As of yesterday, I've lost 40 pounds. I'm doing Pilates 4 times a week (on DVD) and I feel like I look like I did in the early part of my undergraduate studies. It's a fantastic feeling. It's about time to get a few clothes; I've been looking at the dresses at Shukr Online , since they're long and modest and fabulous. Maybe soon? They've got some ( Read more... )
