Can I get a shout out for my NEW JEANS! They're a size 10, Talbot's petites. If Talbot's does vanity sizing, please don't tell me, because these are even a little baggy.
To review, In January 2005, I was growing over my Size 20 clothes. I was 205 pounds. With just diet, I lost 40 pounds, and with exercise I've lost at least 2 sizes. Hooray!!
One more reason to love the skin I'm in? There is a special category for triathletes who way more than 150 lbs. It is called Athena. As you recall, I'm firmly at 168.5. even if I loose the 20 or so pounds I want to, I can probably still race as an Athena.
The difference? Swimming and racing against 250 women between 31 and 35 years old, all shapes, sizes and fitness levels. With Athena, I race against maybe 50 women. Something makes me happy about standing in line with the other Iron Girls who are amply endowed. It would be nicer to beat the pants off the skinny girls, but that is unlikely.
So anyway...props to the rest of my MILF's..we are in our very own category!
PS I'm still taking a break from Hot Monkey Sex Friday. I'm sick and I'm tired and I'm happy. Please feel free to carry on the celebration yourself, and in your own special way.

that's awesome! :)
Es, you totally rock! Isn't it the best feeling in the entire world?
You rock!!!
Thats amazing weight lose and I applaud you on your dedication. It must have been tough. I used to do Triathalons before a back injury stopped me running. I wish they'd had a special race so I didn't have to race all the sleek adonis types lol
I loved the atmosphere and friends I made with sport...I think all the action gave me an endorphine high :)
Congrats! You look awesome and should be so proud.
Bravo!
YAY GIRL!!!
