This weekend I attended my 30th high school reunion.  Most of my former classmates did not know about me having surgery.  They kept saying how great I looked and how much smaller I was now than then.  Then I remembered that my prom dress was a size 16.  I started this journey a little over 7 months ago as a size 22.  This dress that I wore to the reunion was a size 10.

So glad I took this journey for many reasons...this weekend was just icing on the cake!

I had the same experience... went to my 30th reunion last summer as a size 10 and had been a 16 my Senior year in High School... and has a wonderful time without having to worry about being judged for my size!

Exactly!!!  Oh...and the guy that had been voted most popular (of my class of 1,100 people) said I was HOT!!  Wow...THAT made me feel good.

Nobody said I was "hot"  but several people really liked my 4-inch heels!
