Nice. You look great...love the shoes 😍

I actually decided which shoes I wanted to wear first, then chose the dress to match 😂

This morning I Dropped my older son off at camp, grabbing a coffee and getting ready for vacay (4 more days) I realize that my size 12 shorts are too big, but it’s August so I’m too cheap to buy new ones 🤣

OMG, you are too cute! I love it.

Okay, today’s outfit brought to you by ModCloth. This is one that I bought to shrink into, and it came in and it fit! I like the style a lot.

Here is a fun tidbit: at my last therapy appt. I talked about dysmorphia issues. My body is changing too fast for me to keep up. Anyway, she talked about me looking in the mirror more with positive statements about myself. This thread is functioning the same way. I can distance out from myself, because it’s about the clothes, while still seeing myself and getting used to the current version of myself. I would encourage people to NOT WAIT until you hit some magic number on the scale to participate. It’s been such a good exercise for me, and it probably will be for you. Also, if at all possible, don’t wait to buy yourself cute clothes. You should feel good about yourself as you lose, don’t wait. It’s not a waste of money, it’s putting in some of the head work as you lose.

^^^ You said it, sister.

As vain as it may sound to some, putting on some nice threads and looking and feeling good is a major confidence booster. And confidence is the Best. Thing. Ever. because it makes everything you do feel like the BEST. THING. EVER.

P.S. I just checked out ModCloth...some seriously cute stuff on there

ModCloth is TROUBLE! They have some GREAT markdowns, though. This dress was just over $20, and it is made very well, lined and everything. The only thing I wish it had was pockets.

Left: OOTD* for a client meeting this morning.

Right: What I changed into immediately when I got home, lol.

*What a difference 20 lbs makes. Around mid-May (~3 months ago) I couldn't zip the zipper all the way up on this black dress, and it was TIGHT across my butt. Now it's too loose to wear by itself - I have to wear something underneath, AND belt it.

Did you find any espadrilles?

Sadly, no...the search continues.

Lol! I wore yoga pants and a frumpy top for too many years! I’m ready to let my shimmer come through 🤗

Becoming addicted to this thread.

Here is my outfit I’m going to wear to work tomorrow.
Yes... took a pic of myself in it today

Today’s outfit comes to you from “hot as hell” and “spending the day cleaning and packing for vacation” They’re not all glamorous, folks 🤣
