“I’ve gone from a size 20 jean to a size 12...”

I am extremely proud of you! That is a significant lower jean size. You have to feel fantastic! (both mentally and physically). I know losing weight can be very difficult especially if you are cooking for other people. You have to eat what you can have but still make good meals for others. Good job!!!

Thanks mom!

I am proud! (big grin) I lost 27% of ME.

The weirdest part is that my perception is different in ways that I didn’t imagine. I don’t feel smaller. I feel *longer*. My chair feels bigger. I still keep giving my son my jeans when I’m folding laundry. (I’m used to the GIANT jeans being mine...)

I’m still not used to the image in the mirror. Every time I go into the bathroom I do a double-take.

It really is wonderful. :-)
