I noticed I’ve mainly logged my set backs and obstacles until now. I should write the positive things too.
I’ve thrown away two pants since I’ve started with this training. It was one pair of 44″-dockers pleated jeans, which used to be the only one I could wear for a whole day of office work without getting uncomfortable. Another one is a 42″ pleated pants. This one I dared to wear because it has 2 buttons. So even if one pop outs, I still have another one (Luckily I never had to use this plan).
Before I started this weightloss plan, I wanted to buy another 44″ pair. Because the old ones were getting worn out. Lucky for me, (or embarrassing enough), the girl at the dockers’ store said (with a surprised snug) that she’d had to order those sizes… I did not take this offer, and am glad I don’t need to.
Both became too big and would fall off when I walk. They’ve served me well, but I’ve ripped the 42″ one in two. To remind me that I can never go back. The 44″, I’ve hidden it, so I can see how far I’ve gone, once I’ve reached my goal.
I’ve re-ordered my closet too. There are a dozens of (never worn) jeans and pants in sizes ranging from 42″ (several models) to 36″. I’ve bought them during sales with the idea of “I’ll be able to fit into them when I’ve lost weight”. Never happened.
Now, they’ll actually be a good indicator for my progress. I’m now able to fit into 2 42″-normal fit dockers jeans (which are starting to get a tad too big already 
)
The same for my shirts. I have one very tight shirt I could not button down. Now I can button down 4 buttons. 3 left before it’s completely buttoned.
