Shinning moment of clarity!

Jan 14, 2013

I went on a date last night and the guy called me beautiful twice.  Not in a "I'm trying to get in your pants way" but in a genuine "Come on you know your beautiful" way.  Which BTW has never been even close to my mind set.  Cute yes, pretty sometimes, but Beautiful?? Me?? Really??

We went to a movie and I had to run to the bathroom and as I was about to leave I had to walk by a full length mirror and I stopped and looked at myself and was like "holy crap...who the heck is that skinny girl?"  Seriously, that's me!  I mean I see myself everyday and I see the size of my clothes but I think I don't really SEE the skinny girl that's emerging. 

Sooooo TODAY I'm going to own it.  I'm BEAUTIFUL!! INSIDE AND OUT.  

Maybe I'll never see this guy again and maybe I will but for that moment of clarity I wouldn't change anything for the world.  We are always so tough on ourselves.  Society says size 0 is where it's at...I say happy and healthy is where it's at.  Whether I stop losing weight today or go down to a size 8 or smaller....I know I'll be happy, beautiful and healthy. 

For anyone considering this surgery - it really can change your life inside and out. :) Today is a good day!
