How the heck did that happen?

Shirt size = small

A few of us bandsters had lunch on Saturday and then went shopping.  We were at American Eagle (great sale) and I tried on a shirt in a medium, just a little baggy so I tried on a small.  It fit!  Two different shirts, both in size small and they both fit.  I only recently started buying mediums and now I can fit in smalls.  Wow!  Never thought that would happen.  When I go down a size I always think it's just the manufacturer and they way they cut it.  But I also went to Kohls and found an awesome shirt on sale also in a small.  I'm still buying pants in an 8.  I don't want to try a 6 yet and be bummed when they don't fit.  Oh, the mind games that go with weight loss.

I went to Meridian, Idaho last week for a work meeting.  Apparently I was invited to be the surprise guest.  There are a lot of new managers I have never met in person yet.  It was fun to see everyone and the meeting was great.  My boss, the owner, kept telling everyone how much weight I've lost.  I do like the attention and I do receive more respect now.  If I think too much of it, it does irritate me that I still have the same brain but because I've lost a significant amount of weight I'm somehow more valuable.  Tuesday night was a dinner and I have to say I was really nervous to eat in front of everyone.  I was afraid that because of the flight and the stress I was putting on myself that I would be too tight and possibly get stuck.  But I had some hot coffee before dinner and everything worked out great.  I had the best Lobster Bisque ever!  I ordered a crab and avocado salad thinking it would be nice and small.......it came out and was HUGE!  What I ate of it was so incredible though.
