I know Ive changed!
I am so happy with my journey lately, I always have been but little things keep happening that make me so so sooo happy.
I have been looking at my body a lot recently and have noticed some nice changes, the main one is that my tummy is tightening up! It obviously isnt flat and there is still always going to be something there, but at the bottom, where the skin is the 'floppiest', it is tightening and shrinking up and getting much smaller and I am very very happy about this, I expected it to get worse over time and I was getting rashes and itching and sweating there but now that is stopping with the shrinking skin, so I am thrilled.
Much of my body is getting rid of its fat stores too, I am noticing body parts looking kind of normal, that makes me happy too.
With things shrinking up I am hoping that my thighs will tighten a little too, that would make me sooooo happy!!
Some may remember that I was thrilled a while back when I was measured in work for my new overall, I measured the same as my slimmer work mates and I felt normal for a change, I was so so happy about that, wellllllllll, the overalls arrived today, I tried it on...and...I have to send it back...its too big hehehehe oh how happy that made me, my heart soared in my chest and my supervisor had ordered the same size and when she saw that mine was too big she tried hers on...and it fit her well...she wasnt too happy about that but was happy for me, as were my other work friends that proceeded to tell me how great they think I am doing. So I was soooooooo happy with that, I am having to order a MEDIUM...my God, ME...the woman that seven months ago had to order XOS (plus PLUS size) and was struggling to fit into that!!!
I went to Asda to buy a t-shirt and saw a dress and the only size bigger than a 12 and smaller than a 22 was a 14, I decided to try it on expecting it to fit barely...nope, in that particular dress I could have gotten a 12!!! Now, there is NO way that I could walk into most shops and buy a 12 anything, but to have that dress fit well and be able to actually buy a 12 in it (though I didnt buy it) made my year!!! lol
So all in all, right now I am VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY happy with my life and journey, I didnt think that it was even possible to be more happy about it all than I was recently but today proved me wrong.
My success has even spurred one of my workmates to consider looking into a bypass herself!
God bless life for giving so much to me, I have never been happier and every day life gets even better.
I just wanted to share my happiness with you all xx
