Lynn M.
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!!!!!
