I hit a milestone today!!

I am the lightest I have been in 5 years! I mentioned before that I had some clothes from the past. I will get back to that! This weekend Den went on a much needed Man Trip with his new 4 Wheel group. I stayed home for some me time! Well I worked, that is my me time. I love my job. I know I need help. Anyway, Friday night I stopped at Fashion Bug on the way home, Shopping is getting better. I saw the cutest skort. I usually don't like skorts but this one was Camo and very do-able! I decided to buy it in a size SMALLER than my last shopping outing. A little nervous, I held it up and thought "There is no way!" I mean this thing looked so small. I hate dressing rooms, so I took it home. After agonizing over it I finally decide to get it over with and try the dumb thing on. As I am holding it up to take one last look before tormenting myself, I opt to leave all the tags on, as I know I will be returning this. There is no way That I can wear this, when it SLIPS on and it ZIPS UP with NO effort!!! I was ECSTATIC!!! I almost danced!! I wore my new outfit Saturday and I got so many compliments and so many people told me that they could really see my progress, well I would hope after 6 DRESS SIZES!!!! YAY!!!
So today I have this very cute pair of BLINGY Jean Crop Capri's that I bought 5 years ago the day after Christmas. I remember very well buying these pants and squeezing into them! I also remember how I would not sit down in them when I had them on in fear I would cut myself in half! I refused to return them, I did not want to admit that I was gaining weight again!! I knew that I had them in a tub in my closet so I thought that if I was able to wear a smaller size then certainly I could wear these Capri's. This morning I get them out, almost expecting them to be to small and they fit actually they are almost to big! I was so happy!! I just can't wrap my mind around my size right now! I still see a person who has not lost anything! My body image is bad!! I can see the scale, I can see the clothes but when I look in the mirror I still see the old me. Pictures shock me. I took a picture Friday night to show my sister how dark my tan was and yes it was darker than I thought but I was also thinner thank I see myself also. I am working on that. I do not want to have a distorted body image. I think that has been one of my issues all these years. I am enjoying the surprises. I am happy with my results.
