Seeing people and feeling good!

Last night I had to go to a cocktail party where I knew I would see some acquaintances who are very body-conscious and notice every pound I, or anyone else, gains or loses. I am down 11 pounds now (out of 14 to lose, possibly 20)and felt pretty confident going in there. I just kept thinking how glad I am that I am losing weight, and how it's been worth all the hunger and strict food policing to walk in there feeling confident. If I hadn't lost 11 pounds, I would have been very anxious about the party and upset with myself for letting myself gain weight. But as it was, I felt great! Hooray for me!
