Goals

I have always been a goal setter. I like having a finish line to cross (even if its only in my mind). I also like to see a project completed, no matter what form that completion may be.
With this weight loss I set goals for myself. Secret ones, that I really thought would never come to pass so told no one about them. And public realistic ones that I hoped would come around but was ok with others knowing if it didn't work out.
Today I had to reset my goals. Originally I just wanted to get back in my old clothes. You know, the ones that made me feel good about myself. The ones that screamed out my personal style. The ones I haven't worn (comfortably) for years. Ya, those ones.
Well today I tried on my "goal clothes" and half of them are already too big for me!! I am rather excited about this. A dress I purchased a couple years ago and have never worn, fits like a glove! Another dress that I have tried to wear now is loose and I might have to take it in before I wear it again. More importantly a dress my hubby bought me years ago and haven't ever worn fits so well that I cant wait to wear it out! It might need to be taken in at the waist (again, I'm cool with that) but really, this dress hasn't ever seen the light of day. This is big news in my world.
So all that being said I have to set new goals... I don't have any jeans to measure by. The ones my coach gave me fit super comfy (and yes they are a size 6, the company runs a little big.. but who's complaining?) I don't have any dresses that don't fit either. I have one skirt that is snug and fits high, but its a vintage one and should sit high on my waste, so I'm not too worried about that. I might just have to go out and buy future clothing just so I have new goal clothes, lol... I'm a little giddy about this prospect.
The downside to all this new goal setting is that I have cute clothing that I am either going to have to alter to keep wearing or get rid of them. I am particularly bummed about a pair of slacks that were expensive and now hang funny on my hips. I wish I had known they would fit back when I weighed more and I would have gotten some use out of them. I will most likely try to take them in, but am not sure I know enough about tailoring to make them look good.
