NSV and an OOPS!
Crazy day today. I went shopping and decided to be adventuresome and try the petite department (I'm only 5'). I actually bought a pretty sweater that fits! I am down to 4 pairs of jeans (all with elastic waists) and they are all very baggy. Tried on some jeans...too big! I have no idea of what size to try and it kinda scares/excites me to think about shopping soon. I made a decision that I would not shop in the Women's Department...ever again! I proved that I can be normal.
Then, I was so happy about my NSV that I decided to treat myself to lunch out. Had a delicious cup of soup at Olga's...no snackers. But the soup was so good and I was so excited about shopping that I kept eating and then, for the first time, I hurt from stuffing myself! Nothing horrible, just a tightness, but more than I have had before. Kind of showed me you can't let down your guard at all and also not to use food as a reward.
All in all it was a learning type day. I can shop normal and can't (and don't really want to) eat like I used to.
I'm happy!

I still have 2 wardrobes to go thru...but some of them are 20 years old and look it!!! Right now I'm wearing whatever I still have (I have given away 8 garbage bags) and since I don't work, its not a problem. I just want a few things that don't bag in the butt, to wear when I go out. And new stuff is always an ego boost.
Hang in there and your day will come...soon!
