Confession, ending with a NSV

I, like many, am repeating weight loss after several episodes of relapse, gains, etc. Well, over a year ago I bought a kickass fitted suit to wear to interviews, presentations, what have you. Then in early June, after being off the weight-loss band wagon for...a while, I had an interview for graduate school. Much to my dismay, my suit was horribly tight.

This is the worst part...I actually went and bought the exact same suit 2 sizes bigger, wore it with the tags tucked in, and returned it. (Yes, I felt like the scum of the earth people....I see you over there judging. Like you've never done anything wrong).

Fast forward to now. I have to go to my fiancée's grandmother's memorial service and I thought it would be nice to wear the pants from that suit I had (the original) with a nice shirt. I had been consistently losing weight since the end of June. Well, not only did they fit, but they were just barely loose, and beautifully comfortable. I was overjoyed!!!!!! Definitely motivation to keep going!

    lol..well..it only seems right that you donate your too loose suit to a charity like Dressed for Success or something to temper the karma for the tucking in the tags return thing.. (mmm which i think we all have done! haha) Congrats on getting back off… I hope i can do the same.
