Thanks everyone! I do feel good about my journey thus far. Now that I have my head on straight and I am back on track - completely compliant for 4 days now - I feel even better.

Kelly - Thanks for the compliments on the outfit. I think it is supposed to be a dress, but I would never wear anything that short without at least leggings under it. It was one of my $1.50 finds at Goodys which is going out of business.

You look AMAZING!!!!! Congrats on your journey .I am very very proud of you.

Reminds me of how I promised myself ....Too get super cute clothes when I get this weight off.I have told myself that for the past few years.
Still I end up digging thru my husbands closet for oversized clothes.

Now after seeing you Bren ..I am truely looking forward to shopping again.

WOWZER, BRENDA, my little country girl. How great you look!
Oh, I do know how much fun it is to shop for smaller clothes and getting rid of the bigger ones.
Thing is, now, I went wild and bought so many that I am still getting around to wearing them all.
It's still fun...
Congratulations, you have to be proud of your accomplishments....thanks for sharing.
