I feel good!!!

Apr 13, 2011

Today has been a good day. I weighed this morning and I have lost 22 pounds since I decided to go on this journey. At my heaviest I was 288!!!!!! I am now 266. I am quite proud of myself. I lost some weight before I even went to the weight management center. I was so embarrassed at weighing that much.
  It was said today "looks like your clothes are falling off of you!" I said Thanks! That is my hopes! All of these big clothes fall off and I can finally wear a regular sized shirt or jeans. I don't know when the last time was that I actually bought an outfit that I truly loved. Usually it is out of necessity that I buy anything. I wear uniforms to work so who needs pretty clothes? Uniforms can be pretty too and I want to buy some very frilly ones for once! I not only want to feel better but my self image needs a total overhaul. I have always thought that I don't need someone to tell me I am pretty, smart, nice, sexy. But being honest with myself, it does help when you have encouragement and someone telling you "good job!" I told my husband that he needs to tell me "he can tell I am losing weight", not agreeing with someone else saying it. I want to hear it from HIM! But I only want the Truth! 
  I thank the Lord for giving me this opportunity to become the person I was meant to be.  I also thank my OH friends that are a text or phone call away.
