I'm stopping at 230. I hit the smaller size and I'm happy. My sweet husband has asked me to stop, saying I'm perfect! Well I have waited my WHOLE FLIPPING LIFE for someone to say that to me.
So I'm stopping and going to just hang out in my 230 pound lighter frame and enjoy life. Speaking of enjoying life, I have a casual-chic Christmas party to go to tonight. So I went shopping this week for something to wear. The weird thing is when I go shopping I still feel like nothing is going to fit at the regular stores, almost like a fraud. Like they are going to see me shopping here in normal sizes and laugh at me. And if anyone of a size larger than a 20 has ever shopped at Dillards or Macys, you know how those sales peeps like to look down their noses at us. Anyway, I hit Dillards and the sales peeps all helped me and I was able to wear EVERYTHING I wanted to try on. I even shopped in the JUNIOR DEPARTMENT and they fit too. It was the best time I have ever had and I felt like it was a Christmas present in itself. I found a beautiful, shiny silver shirt with these cool diamond cut outs in the very front. It's amazing, something I would never in a million years dreamed I would be wearing. Since it's casual, I'm pairing it with a pair of tight jeans! ME IN TIGHT JEANS can you believe it and no muffin top. I started my journey as a size 32/34, last Christmas I was a size 22 and this Christmas I'm in a 10! Life is good!
Merry Christmas to all my FTS compadres. We deserve to enjoy life!
