Happy New Year all my everyone! :)

Hey everybody! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Hope the holidays treated you all fabulously! I had a blast with the fam and such. :) Didn't eat so well, but I'm back on track now! Didn't lose anything for a month, it seems. I have noticed some shifting though...that can ALWAYS be a good thing! :) My greatest most amazing thing happened last week. I went to Cato to spend one of the gift cards I got for Christmas and NOTHING on the plus side was working for me. I walked out of the store with...get this.....a pair of EXTRA LARGE pants and three EXTRA LARGE shirts from the Jr. Misses side!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I coudln't believe it. I stood in the fitting room crying for 15 minutes! My 3 yr old was going, "Mommy...don't be sad, its pretty." Aww...SO sweet. :) I loved it. I let him know I was crying because I was happy...not because I was sad. :)

I have missed you all very much and look forward to being on here more!!! Love you all!!!

What a great story I would have cried too. happy New Year and congrats on your weight loss.

Hey my almost surgery buddy!  Remember when we were both struggling to lose that dang pre-op weight and didn't think we'd ever get a surgery date?  Well, we've come a long way baby!!

Congratulations on a fabulous WOW moment!  I'm so happy for you.  It's so much fun to be able to shop in the "regular" size departments.  Enjoy!  And a very Happy New Year to you and your sweet little boy!

Congrats Liz...dont be such a stranger dangit...hehehe

 Isn't it a nice change to be crying in a dressing room for good reasons rather than the reasons we were crying in the dressing room before surgery?  Congratulations!

Liz you are so beautiful and doing such an amazing job!!  I was able to fit into a top at Coldwater Creek that was an XL and I was crying in the dressing room so I totally understand! Congratulations!

Liz! I was wondering today where you went! I am so happy to hear you are doing so well and what a wonderful start to the New Year!! I can't believe how much you have lost! This is amazing!
I am glad you are back and am happy that maybe you will be around a bit more! Please stay in touch! Congrats on the new clothes too!

That's such a good story-I'm happy for you (and your little boy sounds precious).

Congrats Liz!  You have done a great job!  I know what you mean about leaving the plus size dept.  It is AWESOME to be able to shop anywhere.  I remember crying in the dressing room because I couldn't fit in the largest sizes the Avenue or Catherine's had in the store.....  I rejoice with you!!!!  Happy New Year to you and to more WOW moments to come.

The only bad thing for me and the clothes is what some call "transfer addiction"!!!  I LOVE shopping for clothes and especially when they are on sale!!
