You guys know the one I'm talking about. The surveillance video that haunts most pharmacy counters, avoided only by staring at your feet. Today, I had to do a double-take. Yes, that was me! With a pleasant gap between my arms and torso. Screw the number on the scale; that's exciting!!!

    That's really wonderful! I love moments like this the most because it's more than a number a scale, or lab report or a dress size :) It's these moments when we just love ourselves that make all the pain and determination worth it.
    Congrats :happy:

    That, and the massive mirrors that are hugging the walls to watch for shoplifters. That store is very humbling, really.

    Congrats!

    Thanks so much!! I felt much happier doing that double take than I do when I step on the scale! :)

    Haha, Thanks!! And I know. That long walk of shame walking up to the pharmacy counter with that HUGE mirror up near the ceiling-- I just stare at my feet. .____. But today, I was like HOO-RA!!!! Look at me strut!!

    Can't wait until I'm at my goal. I'm going to die of vanity!! PAHAHA. [/joking]

    I work at Walgreen's as a Pharmacy Tech... I never look up! There is nothing flattering in those cameras, even if your super skinny... they warp everything!
