Oh, the shopping!! I really need to stop it since I'm no where near goal, but I have a good reason to do it. One, none of my clothes fit, and I'm on my third wardrobe. Two, (and most importantly) I'm starting a new job tomorrow! It's a corporate position with a great company and I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have had the confidence to pursue it 100 pounds ago. I didn't gain any new professional skills during the last 6 months, but I really do attribute my weight loss to helping me land the position. Also, I was able to shop in regular people sizes for a suit for the interview....which brings me back to the shopping! I am just having a ball. Went to an upscale outlet mall yesterday and was able to get LOTS of things for work at super reduced prices, something not possible in plus sizes.

Been going to the beach every day when I haven't been in 7 years. Only 3 weeks post op but I'm feeling much more confident. And the mall! Wow its like a whole new experience. I go in and out of every store not just lane bryant and bath & body works. So much more enjoyable. Oh and I bought 2 new swimsuits in size 16!

My favorite NSV, my oldest grandson hugging me around the waist and being so excited that he could get his arms around me!

My favorite NSV :

1) FINALLY riding all the rides at 6 flags with my children

2) Purchasing a pair of Aeropostale jeans online and THEY FIT!(was one of my goals).

3) Doing laundry last week, folded my 13 year old daughters pants...have her come back 5 minutes later "umm mom, these are yours"! WHAT??

4) being able to cross my legs

5) wait, I have ribs, collar bone and hip bones?

6) sitting on the couch with my knees drawn up to my chin (HAHA!!)

VICTORY IS MINE!!

My first NSV since having surgery one month ago would be when I went for massage on Friday (my birthday present from coworkers), and the towel they gave me to cover myself actually covered

me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Last time I was mortified when it didn't cover and they gave me a sheet instead

I have only lost 23 pounds but I think it all came from my booty! LOL

My favorite NSV is my husband of 33 years can now hug me and his arms touch in the back, that has never happened in our entire marriage, and I love every second of it!

Mine was on top lol. I was so uncomfortable with my weight that I hated the way I looked. My hubby would tell me I saw you have 2 c sections and I've held your hand when you were sick, I love you no matter what and think your beautiful but I just couldn't do it. Well finally after losing 54 pounds and feeling better about myself. We got a hotel room and I got on top and it was amazing. I was missing out. And the whole time he was telling me how sexy and beautiful I was. It was definitely one for the book lol. Too much tmi sorry
