I am happy with this weeks weight loss. I know I probably lost a little more as I didn't get to weight myself until later in the day after I had already consumed meal but that will show up next week. 

I've got some BIG news

DRUM ROLL PLEASE ..................

I purchased my first shirt at Macy's in the normal girl section!!! YAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!

For the first time in 10 years, I can officially say I no longer have to shop at big girl stores or departments.  It is an amazing feeling. 

So now I am sporting my size 15 juniors jeans (curtesy of my little sister trunk'o'jeans) and a XL shirt. I never thought this day would come.

One of the reasons I wanted to be under 200 by the end of the summer is that my cousin from France is coming on September 3rd.  The last time she saw me in person was when I was around 180 and it looks there is a real possibility I could be around that weight when I see her again.  I am so thrilled.

This week, i got together with two friends who have not seen me since I have started loosing weight.  Their reactions gave me such a ego boost.  I am still riding the high.
