"Minor" victory that feels huge to me!

Hi, Loseit! I just wanted to share that, for the first time in about five years, I was able to put on a sports bra this morning!

I have been waiting and waiting for my boobs to be small enough to fit into a sports bra and TODAY IS THE DAY.

This is amazing! I can move! I can breathe! I can do housework! Once my meds are tapered down again and my legs aren't swollen, I can start playing DDR again!

Also, MyFitnessPal has their BlackBerry App out now.

What awesome things have happened in your journey recently?

Good work! I haven't even tried fitting into a sports bra. I do have a Y chromosome though, so I'm not too panicked.

Thanks! I think you can safely avoid the sports bras for now, but I fully expect you to try one at some point in your life! :P

Smaller boobs? Can I, a male, really support this? Sure I can. I don't know what kind of voodoo goes into putting on a sports bra, or any bra for that matter, but today IS the day. Congratulations.

Edit: also, I'm aaronbyard on MFP if you want to be friends. There are a ton of redditors there.

Hey, boobs are boobs. If they're a tad smaller and it makes the woman happier, its a good thing :P

Heck, I'm a dude, and I'd be ecstatic if I found my boobs were smaller. :D

Hah. It's funny I just had to learn how to make a belt shorter :) It was the most fun chore.

I walked for 6+ hours every day for the last few days visiting NYC and only had a few blisters to show for it! Yay, stamina and ability to walk hills without being out of breath!

Congratulations! That sounds like a huge victory to me. I'm excited for you that you get to play DDR again soon. It's one of the best ways to have fun and feel good about yourself IMO.

I've lost 9 pounds so far and I can fit into a really cute pair of jeans I had before I put on some weight.

There is no such thing as a minor victory. Congrats on this next step! I'm sure this is just the first of many awesome things.
