Shopping...used to be my favorite...

I love shopping (as do most women, haha)... Today I went with my Aunt and played stylist/personal shopper for her. I picked out EVERYTHING for her and man, I did a damn good job! She bought almost everything I had picked out and loved it all and they all fit her perfectly. If only I could make a real career out of it! I think I have a knack for that...

However, I did not buy 1 piece of clothing. I would normally buy a couple of things, even at 258 lbs, but not today. I am waiting till I lose some more weight and absolutely have to get a few smaller things. Right now, I have a lot that I can still wear in my closet (I did pack an entire garbage bag of clothes up to pass along to my sis) and things are getting baggy, but wearable. The jeans that were too tight to get on before, now sag after an hour. BUT, I refuse to even try on anything right now because I know next week I could be in a smaller size OR a smaller size won't fit me right now and I will be so disappointed.

My Aunt wanted to buy me an outfit for Mother's Day (so sweet) but I told her I'd rather wait till I lose some more weight... I am hoping soon I will NEED new stuff!! We had a nice day, had some lunch and dinner together and walked around the mall. It was nice to get out. It was also nice to wear jeans and a tshirt and not cover up with a sweater or something. I am feeling pretty good with my weight loss and more comfortable in my own skin. I am less self-conscious and more self-confident. I love my tool!

As of yesterday morning, 36 lbs down.... Woohoo! 1 month has already passed! I have my one month check up next week...I have met my surgeon's one month goal already, actually I have even surpassed it by about 5 lbs. So they are going to be very pleased with my progress. I am sooooo damn happy I had this surgery...
