I am having an awesome day!

I had a wonderful morning with Bill, then I went shopping with my daughters.  I knew my pants were getting big again, so I tried on some pants one size, then TWO SIZES smaller than the ones I was wearing.  They fit!  My girls said I look amazing!  I tried on another pair, sure that it was a fluke.  Nope, those fit too!  3 pairs, 1 shirt and some jewelry later, I left the store with this ridiculous grin on my face.  I am back to my lowest size after surgery after a 45 pound re-gain.  I honestly never thought I'd see this size again.  I figured it just wasn't meant to be.  I know a size 14 isn't small, by any means.  And I don't know if this is where I will stay, or if I will lose more.  What I do know is that just for today I feel completely AWESOME, and I love the way I am eating.  I do not feel deprived of anything, and my brain and stomach agree on the amounts more often than not. 

I owe a huge thank you to all of my Barix, OH and OA friends who talked me off the ledge more than once through this journey! 

Thanks for letting me share!


Blessings, Jill

Woo Hoo!!!  Awesome, congrats!


My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . .  It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . .  Laureen
