Good morning, just wanted to chat! Our wedding anniversary is tomorrow; 18 years - most of which....who am I kidding -- ALL of which I have lived as a morbidly obese, miserably unhappy, unfulfilled woman. I can't spend too much time regretting all the years of missed opportunities with my husband and our two kids. All the bikes I didn't ride, hikes I didn't join in on, horses I didn't ride with my daughter, all the DIDN'T's...COULDN'T's...if I spent too much time thinking about the loss, it would make me insane. Instead, I am trying very hard to live in the moment and a bit in the future. So, we're going out tomorrow night to a very nice restaurant where I know the proprietor and some of his staff pretty well - they haven't seen me in years. I told Jim I am giving him ME for our anniversary -- I'm dressing unlike I've ever been able to before! I bought a sparkly little number (size 10!) that hit's ABOVE my knees! HA! The only thing I've ever been able to wear before that hits above my knees is my size 52XXXX underwear! Underneath, I will be wearing an all-in-one-piece bustier! Size 36C! That's down from a 50F a little over a year ago! HA! I'll be wearing little strappy shoes and BLING-BLING earrings. And I'm not going to walk into that restaurant, no sir, I'm going to STRUT MY STUFF, I'm going to HAVE ATTITUDE! My husband has no clue! I think my head is finally catching up with the weight loss; I see it, I feel it and I'M LOVIN' IT. Just wanted to share, guys, have a great day. Love, Reenie

Reenie, You do realize that the folks at the restaurant are going to think Jim has a mistress. I'm so proud of you. Strut your stuff, girl. How exciting is this? I've had a couple of moments of woulda, shoulda, coulda over being so fat in my younger days. You're right, you can drive yourself nuts with that stuff. Live in the moment, Reenie. Live in the moment. Love, Connie
