STEEPLECHASE CLOTHES-OMG

O my gosh, ya'll. . . my husband is one of the sponsors of Steeplechase this year, and I have NEVER been. Always too hot and felt too fat. . . till this year. Since I've lost 95 pounds since my surgery in November, I decided I would go. Then the dreaded question from days of old. . . 'what will I wear?'

Well, I went shopping at Stein Mart and TJ Maxx the other day, went instinctively to my old size (20 or 22), then realized what I had done. Tried on 12's-too big. Next, 10's-too big. Went all the way down to size 8's and even 6's before I found something that fit!!! Woo hoo!!! I cannot tell you how that felt. Bought 2 cute little (and I DID say 'little') dresses that are so 'in' this year. . . u know the ones that look like babydoll dresses from the 60's? I could not BELIEVE those look good on me now.

THIS SURGERY IS AMAZING. I get to go to the Steeplechase this year, wear a hat, and NOT look fat! What could be better???

That is such great news, I'm sure that you was beside yourself. You said that your husband is a sponsor for the Steeplechase. What product/item does he promote. Is he a non-profit? Would he be interested in sponsoring The Nashville Walk from Obesity Walk for Children's Health?
