Day before 12 weeks out

Nov 09, 2010

I am so psyched.  I have had about 3 NSV moments recently and they mean more to me than anything I can experience.  I went to happy hour with my girlfriends on Saturday and I was at Fleming's Steak house and my favorite waiter came over and noticed my weight loss and said I look like half of myself.  I am so easy so when it comes to compliments. 

Then my hair stylist also complimented me on how great I was looking and I had just seen her about 3 weeks ago.  So I posted new pics on facebook where several of my friends have ooohed and ahhhed my losses. 

The absolute best one was the doctor coming back into the room after I got dressed and telling me I was looking good.  All of this a week after I was off my exercise game because of hurting myself.  Tomorrow I get on a plane and head to Miami.

I have never feared this city because I have never doubter my own beauty even as a much larger me lol.  So how am I going to handle it almost 60 lbs smaller then I was the last time I was there.  I am also psyched to get on the place and see if I need a seat belt extender something I have been needing for the longest time.  My hips are still wide but they are smaller than they have been in years.  Don't think I needed them back when I was going to college and was this size, yahoo.

I started therapy last week and my therapist is a true God-send we are working on my issues holistically.  My mind, my emotions, my body, my life, my love and myself. I am learning to have a relationship with Lynn and to meet her needs, to address what she wants so that food is not the solution but just sustenance. 

I am looking forward to a few days away, sunshine, renewal, and the beginning of this phase of my life as a smaller more independent me.  Does anyone else feel that journaling whether on a blog or in a diary is a great way to release much of what we are going through.  Something as simple as seeing it written is therapeutic.

Next week I go to see the doctor for the official 3 month visit hoping the scales say something I want to see.  Doctors scales are always different from the home scales.  My next goal is to be 250 for Christmas this year, that might be a stretch but it would be a great thing to achieve!!!!!
