Mission Accomplished #31dresses

In December I looked at myself and wasn't pleased. I looked like I wasn't trying. I looked like I was losing myself. At 26, that's not ok. So, I looked in my closet and saw all of the skirts and dresses I owned and thought that would be a good way to challenge myself.

Some people said I should wait until its Wagner outside. Others said I didn't have enough dresses. And some just thought I wouldn't do it. But, I didn't do it got fortune else. I did this challenge for me.

With the weightloss goals I have, I need to love my body. And, to love by body, I need to see it. With wearing dresses, I am forced to look at body parts that I've been hiding behind clothes. And boy was this an eye opening experience.

In the 31 days that I didn't wear pants I saw my legs, my arms, my sides and my stomach - every day. I began to want to transform these body parts. I wanted to work harder at eating right and working out. Now, 31 days later, I'm liking what I see. Today I am wearing the same dress I wore on December 29th and I look like Ive lost two whole people.

Challenge accepted. Mission accomplished.

February's Challenge: Accessories
The hashtag I will use is #28jewels. I am promising myself to wear two different pieces of jewelry daily - earrings, necklaces, bracelets, etc. I am challenging myself to continue to put care into my daily ensemble and dress for myself, every day.

Enjoy!
