AARP Muscle Babe

I had to do some clothes shopping yesterday. All my size 8 jeans are too big in the waist & seat and they fall off without a belt to hold them up. I bought a pair of jeans in size 6… I haven’t worn this size for about 18 years! I didn’t even have to suck in my tummy to zip them up Can’t believe I was wearing size 14 just nine months ago!
This was the first time in almost 20 years that I didn’t hate myself looking in the mirror in the dressing room. You know how harsh the lighting is in there… every physical flaw is screaming at you, causing heavy sighs and low self-esteem to run through your head. Well, I happened to glance at the mirror when I was only wearing my underwear and I actually thought that I looked OK. I could see all the gains I’ve made with my 30 lb weight loss and the muscles are starting to really show. I am very encouraged to keep up the bodybuilding routine that I started six weeks ago! I have a long way to go on my goals but I’m making progress every day.
