I have been a waitress forever. One of my favorite things to do is come home after a night of being on my feet and soaking in a nice bubble bath with a good book. For the past couple of years I haven't been able to do this. Mainly because my thighs/hips would rub against the sides of the tub and that would lead me to think about my weight which would lead to not relaxing! So on rare occassion, I would still take my bubble baths...but the mental therapy of it was gone.

Tonight I had a rough night at work and decided to let calgon take me away. It was so relaxing. About 20 minutes in I realized that the reason why it was relaxing was because my thighs weren't touching the sides! So my ticker says 16 but I will have to measure in the morning to get an inch count!

For now I am taking my pruny hands and feet to bed....Completely relaxed!

    Thats fantastic! :) it's amazing the difference a realisation like that can make. :) Last bath I had was when I was pregnant and it was awful as had to go onto my knees to get out. :( I felt ancient! So I can understand the difference this NSV would make for you. I used to love a bath with music and candles. :) maybe it's time for some me time! lol

    I would take that "silly NSV" and run with it for days! I know you are doing great, and 16 pounds is nothing to sneeze at! Keep up the good work
  • Not silly at all...that's awesome! Good for you!
