Today I'm thankful for pre-maternity clothes that fit again. In the Fall of 2008 I purchased a ton of new work clothes for my new role as an assistant principal. I wore them through the Spring of 2009, but by the Fall of 2009 I was pregnant and quickly gained 14 pounds in my first trimester.
It makes me smile each morning when I get dressed for work and have something "new" to wear from 2008. Our scale at home is broken, but I must be at or below my pre-pregnany weight since all of my old clothes fit again. Losing weight is so much more fun when you know how far you've come since the day you delivered a baby.
I'm in a wedding in July of 2010 as a bridesmaid for my best friend in college. This should be the last time I'll be a bridesmaid (unless there are divorces and second weddings for some friends), and I'm determined to be back to my weight I was when I got married. I have a ways to go, but hopefully I can make some progress since I'm planning 8 months in advance.
