V-I-C-T-O-R-Y!!!!!!!!
I am just so ecstatic right now, I thought I would share it with all of you!
I saw my doctor and found that I had gained 10 lbs after my recent 6 day hospital stay. (obviously, that is not the reason why I am so ecstatic!)
I understood how and why it happened, (eating and minimal movement) but I was still rather disappointed. To cheer myself up, I went to Fashion Bug to buy myself this long black dress I had been eyeing for quite some time. I grabbed my usual size, 3x, and went into the dressing room to try it on. It was TOO BIG!!!!!!!! Even after my 10 lb weight gain, the 3x dress was too big!!!
I bought the dress (they didn't have a 2x and I can get this one tailored) and left the store happy as a clam!
You all have been there for me through my struggles, so I just thought I would share my rare moments of joy with you too.
Take care, all of you, and God bless!

Do you see the glass as half empty or half full? I say, what difference does it make--I paid for a full glass,so either way I am getting jipped!!!
The scale does not always show the same change as our bodies do!
Congrats on your success! WHOOOOHOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
