Perhaps a WOW moment??

Hi all,

As I got dressed this morning, I put on a suit that hasn't fit me in a long time, probably 5 years. The skirt for this suit is shorter than anything I've worn in a long time. Lately my skirts have gone to my ankles. This one hits me just under the knee.

As I was walking into the hotel for the conference, I just suddenly realized how much better I felt in my body. I am not close to my goal, but I finally started feeling the impact of losing 72 pounds. It just hit me as I walked from the parking lot to the lobby. I am also wearing shoes with a 1/2 inch heel, but my feet didn't hurt, my lower back didn't hurt and I didn't feel tired. I have only worn flats for the past 5 years. I didn't feel like my clothes were there just to cover me or drape me so I could try to act like I didn't have a body.

I've been disconnected from my body for so long, I haven't taken the time to realize how I felt in my body.

It is definatly a wow moment!! Isn't that a great feeling. I was on jury duty a few weeks ago and happened to glance at the mirror in the bathroom and was surprised by what I saw.

Enjoy the feeling!!!
