    The coference is a week away and....

    I went to the store today to find a dress to wear. I found one that I fell in love with, but it was a size 12. I looked at it, and put it back on the rack.

    I walked around and didn't find another dress that I liked. I kept going back to the dress and finally got up the courage to try it on. It not only fit, but it is loose. I bought it. I can't believe my body can fit into a size 12. In my mind, it was way too small. Well, I've been smiling and trying that dress on all day long!!

          It is so strange how we can be in denial about sooooo many things.

          It runs the gamut, too.

          From... I'm not eating too much to
          I'll never fit into that

          It's times like these we need someone to smack us upside the head.

          {{{you}}} Congratulations!

                Heck yeah that is awesome. I guess it takes a much longer time for your weight loss to register fully psychologically. Rock on honey!

                          He he he, I would also try it on "all day" just to make sure I wasn't dreaming.
                          What a boost for you huh?
                          Great job!
