female only Night out!

[chilo1 62]

I had my 1st night out since surgery last night(7 & 1/2 weeks out)! I bought a pair of jeans size 14 (UK-I'm still not sure how this translates in US size, I think it might be 12 US??) and i could fit into them!! So I wore them last night with a pair of black stilletos and a loosley fitted top (still have issues with my tummy) I felt good about myself like I haven't in a long time. People commented on how good I was looking and I even had 2 cosmo cocktails (I know empty calories but i did put them on my calorie tracker, it added 1000 calories with all my meals yesterday, so not that bad). I just wanted to share with you that it was so nice to feel "normal" again. I know that I still have a way to go (I'm half way to my target weight), but this night out was a special occassion. I don't go out very often, maybe once evry 2 or 3 months, so I won't be doing this often as I don't want to sabotage my weight loss. I didn't get drunk with the 2 cocktails which I was afraid of so it was good all round!

How wonderful! Never, never, feel bad about having a drink or two or going out. . it's wonderful to be normal. . . we all are worth it. . . we should never again feel "guilty" about what we do! I'm so proud of you! I have my rum and colas every friday and saturday evening. . and you know what I don't feel guilty at all! I can however only have 2 cause then i get loopy:001_rolleyes: I'm such a girl !!!! :scared0:
