Amazing! Keep up the hard work!!!

Hi GG!!! Kayla 2-23-06 sw 230 gw 135 cw140 Thanks again for doing this...

I've resorted to taking my husband clothes shopping with me. I'll pull something out on the discount rack and be looking at it when he says "No. Put it back. It's too big." He made me try on some medium tops. I almost died when they fit. It never fails when someone compliments me my response is "Yeah but I still have 30 pounds to loose" or something similar. I have NEVER been normal size in my life. I'm not sure if I love myself either. (sigh)

Terri, I can totally relate. I haven't enjoyed my new body. I still tend to gravitate to the plus also. I can fit in a 10/12. I can shop in the normal size department, except I still see myself as a big girl. I have some flab on my arms and everday when I shower, I wonder whose in the mirror looking at me. I dress pretty conservatively and comfortable. I have 1 size 12 jeans and they are a bit loose. I could have gotten away with a 10. With the seasons changing I've decided that I will treat myself to a new clothes in October. I have nothing to wear. I am amazed that I fit in a large, well, i'm in serious denial. I cannot beleive I"m 'normal'. I've always been bigger. I just finally accepted that I have about 20-25 to go. THis goal is easier to reach then the 75 I've lost. I know I will not gain it back. Now, it's time for toning with chronic back pain it's so hard to excercise. I have alot of stress so it takes it's toll on me. Do you get shy when people point out your weight loss. I do, especially when I hear comments skinni mini, thin, where'd the rest of you go. My neck and face are very defined. I still see a fat person though. I still hide under my clothes. I also question if I love myself. Does this make anysense? You are not alone. Jennifer

hehehe thank you and i know what you mean. Im so glad we are all in this together J
