I finally located a top that would be suitable for the outrageous weather we've been getting (hot, hot, hot) but it was... dum, dum, dum... a fitted shirt - meaning it clung to my mid section - the one part of my body that has the most fat on it. In fact, I think the remaining 50 lbs I want to lose will come solely from my mid-section as there is not nearly as much fat on any other part of my body.
Unfortunately, the fitted shirt paired with my "they almost fit me" size 12 dress pants gave me a horrible muffin-top - so in a hurry I threw on the "too-big-for-me" size 14 dress pants.
The outfit ended up working for me:
The best part is that the shirt doesn't cling to me - it actually fits me properly! Such a success and really nice considering how hot it is today.
Speaking of hot days, I think drinking copious amounts of water is key to me staying healthy (and hydrated) in the heat:
How do you beat the heat? What you makes you able to bear this hellish hot weather?
Wow, you look great! Congratulations - soon those size 12 pants will fit great and this top will be too big!
ReplyDeleteYou have got a great shape to your figure. VAVAVOOM!!!
ReplyDeleteBeating the heat? Water water and more water. Drink it, Eat it (water melon) and swim in it and... enjoy.
You are such an inspiration! Your consistancy and motivation is really paying off and your success is what you have to show for it! Great work. Enjoy the weather and be confident in some nice slim tanks and shorts :)
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! Slim tanks and shorts - lol - good one! I'm not there yet - but I will be there soon... just got to keep working my butt off - literally!
ReplyDeleteUggg how is anyone suppose to sleep in this heat!!!! Bring back spring!
ReplyDeleteMy keys to staying cool is lots of frozen watermelon and frozen grapes. Yummy! Also I buy LOADS of the no name mini freezies from Superstore. They are only 10 Calories a pop.
You truly look amazing Lisa. Just incredible!
