I had one of those moments today that I think every fat girl dreams about! (At least I sure did)  I was all dressed up from being at church and pulled into the gas station as a guy was pulling out. He totally checked me out as I drove by. I recognized him as the guy I was madly in love with back in high school. We worked together and he never gave me the time of day. I hadn't seen him in over 7 years! As I was in the gas station paying, I just had a feeling he was going to find an excuse to come back to the gas station, and wouldn't you know he swung in a few seconds later and ran in trying to act all funny saying, "Oh did I forget my blah blah blah?" I think the cashier knew his real reason for coming back and sort of rolled her eyes and said, "no you didn't." He just stood there awkwardly while I breezed on by not giving him a glance. It was the bestest!  I really don't know if he recognized me for the old me, or just thought I was pretty.......but damn it felt good.   :)

Nothing that I can think of tops that feeling!  Awesome.   The first time that happened to me, it was also in a gas station, and I was stopping to fill up right after a wedding ceremony before I headed to the reception that was being held in my hometown - so yes - I was dressed to impress.  And he got in line behind me.  He looked at me - then did about 10 double takes - and said "Amy?"  and I just smiled, paid for my gas and strutted outta there like a runway model.    Yay for sweet validation!

great feeling isn't it. i love when that happens, especially when it's girls who wouldn't give the time of day back in high school.  and it feels good to turn them down like they would me back in the day. if i wasn't good enough then why am i now, i am still the same person. great feeling.

Awww thanks!  Its so strange because I am still really insecure.  When I look in the mirror I see all of my imperfections, and yet I know when I go out that I can stop traffic LOL!

LOL, you go girl!

Its hard... I've learned to accept the way my body looks.  The attention and compliments still are kind of unnerving... but they helped me to realize the hotness within and out he he.
