I wanted to share a wow I had yesterday. We hadn't been to church since the first of June ( I know shame shame). Anyways yesterday I was getting dressed and decided on a dress that I had only worn once a few yrs ago. Well Last time I wore it it was very tight all over. Yesterday..... I put it on and it was WAYYYYYYY too big!!! My hubby was like you have got to take that off it is too big. So onto the next...same thing. I went thru a combined 10 dresses and skirts all too big. I finally wore the one I got for Easter this yr and had to safety pin the side about 2" and still kept pulling it up. It was a great feeling. I also actually wore a bathing suit yesterday with no cover and got in the waterway and enjoyed the water. For so long I have longed to be in the water. I have always been like a fish outta water but was to embarrassed to get in anywhere. Yesterday I did and even a friend of mine said "Wow I see bones!" It was great to hear. Gotta love that collar bone! Anyways I just wanted to share. I had been having a tuff time lately with the scales moving slow but they are moving again and it is showing.Thanks for listening.

Congratulations on the big wow moments. I can't wait to feel/see bones. I don't think I have a picture that shows collarbones in it. I was doing some cleaning up this weekend and I put a box in my closet to start filling up for a local thrift store. I've got 25 days til surgery - I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is great!  I clean my closet out every 6 weeks or so.  I also go to Ross's quite a bit to pick up bargains.  Got a few dresses fand blazer for 19.99 each, tops for 10 bucks or less, and dress capris for 12.99.  I need to hit Goodwill but haven't had the patience to do that yet.

Keep up the incredible shrinking act!
