OMG an amazing thing happened today! My lovely OH bought me a dress in a size 12 to wear on my birthday August 30th which is also my goal date. It was supposed to be my sort of unveiling of the new me.
I was getting ready to go out tonight and it caught my eye. I thought "what the hell" and decided to try it on to see how far I had to go. Well it only bloody fitted 3 months and 3 stone ahead of schedule.
Now I have been in no way, shape or form deluded into thinking that I am actually a size 12. I know full well that if the dress wasn't fitted to the waist then a-line it would not have fitted as I do have a booty. I just cannot believe that I have just returned from a night out in a size 12 dress...very strange. I now have 2 items in a 12 I can wear - my dress and my work shirt.
Another big thing happened tonight. The gig I went to had UV lights so all the lint was showing up on my black cardigan - which I really hate as it looks like you have chronic dandruff - so I took it off and spent the rest of the night with my arms out! This is the first time I have had my arms out in public, regardless of weather conditions, in my life (well since I started dressing myself)! I did feel very self conscious at first but after a while felt quite liberated and proceeded to dance the night away.
Feeling pretty on top of the world at the moment. My dad also told me how proud he is and how beautiful he thinks I am today which meant soooooooo much, I nearly cried! It's the moments like that that really count and are very special!
Sorry for the slightly long post all about me!
Must go to bed now as I have to be up for 7.30 for a fun 18.5 hour working day tomorrow...9am til 3.30am oh what joy! Think I may sleep until WI on sunday after that!!! LOL
Hope your all doing well..I must say your losses are all looking fantabulous!!

So the moral of the story for me is no matter how I feel keep drinking or the weight stays on.
