Topic: RE: 30/32 to 14/16

Last night I went shopping for Christmas gifts for people on my list.  As it sometimes happens I ended up in the store shopping for me.  I saw these blazers really cute and fitted.  Never thinking they would fit me I tried one on size 18 it was too big.  I won't do the three bear thing but I worked my way down to size 14 and it fit.  Oh happy day.  I started to cry right there in the middle of the store.  2 years ago I was a size 30/32 now size 14/16 it is unreal.   Below is the Blazer.  I am going to love to were it to the office.  Looking so cute.

 Faux leather trim adds a downtown vibe to this tweedy plus size blazer

Topic: RE: Proud NVS

I have decided to commit to not do what I did last year around this time.  Gain Weight and Cry about it.  I have taken steps to prepare for the Coming of the BERMUDA TRIANGLE!  Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years.  Last year in January I was up almost 15lbs.  My steps are

1.To get motivated. 

2. Have a buddy the weight me in once a week.  I find that if I step on and someone else see it I will do better. 

3. Move more!

Drum roll please......I have done 1 mile walking for the past 3 days.  I enjoyed it and today when I did it it was easier.  Who know?

Wish me luck.  Hope to see less of me come January.

Topic: RE: PAIN AND HICCUPS AND BURNING
No I do not think you are eating too much.  I do think that the last fill is causing this reaction.  I would buy an over the counter heart burn medication and take that for a day or two I would give it a few days like the dr said.  I would try to eat foods that are not heart burn producing.  Drink warm tea to try to relax your esophagus.  Take it easy on the food.  If it persist by monday I would request an appointment with the Dr for an unfull.  Good luck.  I hope this helps.  Feel better.

I just had to post this one photo  because of my collar bone.  lol.  When I saw it I said to myself wow look at that.  I can't believe it. I posted a photo from 2 year ago to compare.  What a difference.  I am coming up to year 2.  I am very proud of myself.   OK enough about me.....
