Well I felt like blogging this morning, but don't really have much to say. Let's see...
I'm down to 184.8 from 291. I've lost 106 pounds since Feb. 2007. I've gone from size 24/26 to size 14. I fit into size 14's, I can't believe that, but I do. My first goal is to make it to 169. That is 15.8 more pounds to go. I put my height and weight into a BMI calculator, and for my height I need to get to 159 to be normal and not obese anymore. So I am going to keep 169 as my first goal and when I reach that goal I will jump for joy and be proud of myself and then set a new goal to get to 159. Me normal, not obese... No way... I've never been normal. LOL But I want that goal and I will work hard to get there and stay there. I ran into someone the other day at Costco that I had not seen in forever (Tish). Was good to bump into her for a short visit. I passed her while going to get napkins and someone said "Susy"???? Like she wasn't even sure it was me. She was amazed and happy for me. I still feel I am the same person, it's just my head has not caught up with my butt yet. I'm sure that will take sometime. I still feel like the fat girl. I catch my reflection in the windows at times and wonder who I am looking at now. I'd say over the past few months I have learned more patients and learning to love myself again. It feels great to have control over parts of my life and my eating habits.
For not having anything to say I'd say I did pretty good. Have a good week all!

I know what you mean about the body dysmorphia, even though I am over one year out when I catch my reflection I am sometimes caught off guard and wonder who that is looking back at me. Of course now everyone else can't remember seeing me in the before state so it really messes with me, as on some days I'm still the "fat" girl. Keep up the great work, you are almost there!! It's such a rewarding time, enjoy.
