After Five Solid Weeks of Shredding

After six solid weeks of dragging myself out of bed at 6 am to have my ass kicked by Jillian Michaels (evil 30-Day Shred), I finally have some progress to report.

The boots, the ones I bought when I was studying abroad in Spain, the ones that fit me back during the time period that I spent almost all of my days walking and had these amazingly toned calves, the ones that stopped fitting almost immediately when I got back to the US and haven't fit me for six years, the ones that I can't bring myself to giveaway because although I am not normally sentimental about items of clothing, but are the last clothing item I got in Spain and they still look terrific...

those boots, if I don't mind the circulation being cut off a little, fit my calves once again. Now I'm ready at last for the cold weather. BRING IT ON. I've got the boots to deal with it.

Yay Kim!!! Those are some awesome boots. :D And even if you can squish jeans in there, that's what tights and skirts/dresses are for!

That's awesome! I've been stalling about working out this morning, and that gives me just the inspiration I need to pull myself away from this computer. (I would love to be able to fit into my skinny clothes again!)

Hooray! And awesome boots, btw :D

PS: It's too bad I didn't know you yet when you were living in Spain. I'd love to have stalked you :P

Awesome! I have a pair of knee highs and feel like I have to peel them off my legs at the end of the day. I think I might need me some shred!

That's a great looking pair of boots!

Congrats! One of the things I noticed after I lost a lot of weight was that all shoes fit better -- apparently being overweight makes your feet fatter? I have little feet, so I had the hardest time finding shoes. Anyway... love the boots, they look awesome!
