Feeling GRRRREAT

Ok so spring is always a great time for me. When the sun starts shinning again it does wonders for my soul. I got out in the yard and worked awhile today which felt fantastic. I am still applying for jobs, and went and got a physical and got my vaccines updated. Got my PPD ( tuberculosis test) done. I am frustrated I haven't found a job yet, but realisticlly I just started really looking. I guess the financial situation is just on my nerves. Anyhow all in all feeling fantastic and loving life. Tonight when I went out to work in the yard I had to have a belt to put on my pants since all of my pants are too big again (another YAY ME) and I didn't want to have to keep yanking them up while I was working. Well I don't have a belt so I tied a piece of twine kind of stuff through my belt loops. When I cut it off tonight to take a shower I have to say I was shocked. I thought that couldn't have come off of my waist it is way to small. Then I put the ends together and couldn't believe what I was seeing. I actually looked around to see if somehow a smaller piece had miraculously appeared in my hands taking the place of the piece I had cut off. Pretty ridiculous since I hadn't put down the scissors or the twine. But in my head I couldn't believe the size of the stuff. Then I went into the bathroom where my DH was standing and I said Hey this just came off my waist. He said Yea (you know the tone of why are you stating the obvious) and I said but it is really small, He said I have been trying to tell you that you are skinny now but you don't listen. It was like a way cool WOW moment that I just had to share with all of you. I just love it when little things like that completely catch you off gaurd and show you just how far you have come. It was awesome.

It's wonderful reading your post this morning about how good you're feeling and recognizing how much you have accomplished!! Sometimes we are way too hard on ourselves but all it takes is a little thing (like a piece of rope) to make us realize just how far we have come, even if we're not at our original goal (I'm talking about myself & goal).

Congratulations on your awesome WOW - enjoy!!!

Belinda,

That's an awesome WOW... yeah, it takes time for our minds to catch up with our body changes. 

KEEP that piece of string for your scrapbook - it'll give you a giggle when you look back on the experience.  

Congratulations for the amazing job you've been doing and continue to do.  Way to go!

People comment on my over 100 pound weight loss and attribute it to my WILLpower, but it is my WANTpower: I WANT to be thin and healthy more than anything else!

Great wow moment.  I look at pants and belts now too with amazement that something that size will fit around me.  Great job!
