No time for weight-ing

Nov 10, 2011

Where has the time gone?  Where did 95 freaking pounds go???   Yes, that's it, I am now 95 pounds lighter from my first meeting with my surgeon.  I am very exciting to be nearing the 100 pound mark. 

I bought 2 outfits at H&M and proudly told everyone at work when I got compliments on the awesome red dress.  "I bought a dress at H&M!!!"   Seriously, being able to buy clothing at any store still boggles my mind.  My brain is still stuck at 320 pounds and I look at a piece of clothing and automatically think...that will never fit me.  But then I have to talk to myself and convince myself to try it on before dismissing it altogether. 

There have been several occasions where I will catch a glimpse of myself in a mirror in passing and not recognize myself at all.  Once at the border, I thought someone in the next line of cars over was staring at me.  I looked and looked away several times thinking "that person is smiling and staring at me, do I know her?"   Then after a minute or so, I realized it was me!!!!   (I was looking into a mirrored panel behind the border guard and didn't know it at first) 

Oh ya, and I can cross my legs...and fit comfortably into booths! 

Cuba in February and then downhill skiing in Quebec 2 weeks after that.  Losing weight is becoming costly! :D

So my body is changing far faster than my brain can adapt.  I can dig it, its just really weird...and fun!
