hi Ladies

hi Ladies.......I'm wondering how all of you are doing, especially our newest club member, MARIANNE!!!! I hope all of you are well, adjusting and enjoying your new bodies. I'm really liking being able to get into smaller sizes.....I've also noticed that people that I don't know...like in stores ,etc....treat me differently. Wow...to think that I went so many years with that kind of treatment. Looking fwd to hearing from my wonderful group of ladies....hugz:)Deanna

I know exactly what you mean Miss D. I now walk into stores like Forever 21 or Dear Alice, and the sales staff actually swarm over to me and ask me if I need any help. Before, I would walk into those stores and the girls would ignore me! Pfft, the nerve of some people!

I'm now comfortably into a 16, getting ready to stock my closet with some size 14s. I have some clothes that I'm putting together for Veronica as she is blowing through sizes too. She's gone from a 28 down to an 18 in just 3 months!!! She is doing awesome. I'm going to try and drop the clothes off to her work so I'll be sure to have someone take a picture of the two of us.

Looking forward to my trip home to Australia in just 9 days time. I'm hoping to push up to 90lbs lost before I do, and hit the century club while I'm there. It would be wonderful to hit that 100lbs loss mark with my family around me. So fingers crossed

hi Sian....good to hear from and glad to hear about Veronica. I haven't been able to hook up with her at my Von's yet. I am in a 14 wtih room to spare so expect to hit a 12 in a few weeks. I am starting to slow down now as I'm getting close to my goal of a 12. I wear lacy dresses when I perform so I  got them all out og my storage closet (size 12's) and sent them to the cleaners so I'll be ready. I have been giving my clothes to Amvets and am just taking a tax deduction for them. When I move to WA state next summer, I'll have alot less clothes to have to move!!! I'm so glad that you get to go home for Christmas....how long is that flight? You'll notice that the airplane seats are more comfortable now. I experienced that when I flew to Minneapolis at Thanksgiving. Take care and be good....oh heck, I know you'll be good....loveya:)D

I hear ya! I think I get treated way different now by strangers, that before. Even some of the clicki parents at the kids school have taking a liking to me. They keep wanting to get together and do things. I don't want to sound *****y, but I still hang with my real friends, that like me big or small. Although, you can never have to many friends....but they can admire me and my weight loss from afar for a little while longer :)
