Wow! Moment - and not a minute too soon!
Okay - I've told y'all I've been really down today - the old insecurites creeping back...
Anyway, I have a friend that is several months post-op RNY and needing clothes. I told her I needed to clean out my closet anyway - so I could probably dig up some stuff for her.
I came across a pair of pants from a year or so ago. I bought them when I first got down to a size 10 but I didn't try them on. Well, they didn't run true to size - they were more like an 8. If I hopped and jumped around while tugging on them, I could get them over my hips. If I laid down on the bed and pulled on the zipper with a pair of pliers, I could get them zipped. I didn't really ever wear them but did try them on from time to time. The last time was 3 or 4 months ago and I couldn't even get them on at that point. Well tonight, I just came across them and thought I would try them on just for the heck of it. Not only did they go on - they were a bit loose! Wow! And tha's WITH all the swelling!
I really needed that!

Hang in there. As my mom always says when I'm having a rough patch "this too shall pass"....

Thanks to everyone! I truely LOVE the supportive extended family that I have through all of you! It's so easy to get down and beat yourself up - especially after the emotional ride we've all been on throughout our weight loss journey. We all need a pick-me-up from time to time and I'm so thankful that you all have been here to help me through it. I hope I'm able to be as supportive and wonderful to others the same way y'all have been to me :O)
