I felt good that for once the dress looked just as good on me as it did on the model

Ok, am I really the only one who LOVES wearing black leggings now that I’m smaller??
I NEVER wore leggings when I was bigger (I remember feeling fat in them), and always wore jeans (and always dark wash jeans, lol).
I heart leggings!

Jugglers and Highway Patrolmen
A Louisiana State Trooper pulled a car over on US165 about 2
miles south of the Louisiana/Arkansas State line.

When the Trooper asked the driver why he was speeding, the driver
said he was a magician and juggler and was on his way to Monroe to do a
show at the Shrine Circus. He didn't want to be late.
The Trooper told the driver he was fascinated by juggling and
asked if the driver would do a little juggling for him then he
wouldn't give him a ticket.

He told the Trooper he had sent his equipment ahead and didn't have
anything to juggle.

The Trooper said he had some flares in the trunk and asked if
he could juggle them. The juggler said he could, so the Trooper got
3 Flares, lit them and handed them to him.

While the man was juggling, a car pulled in behind the patrol
car, a drunken good old boy from Arkansas got out, watched the
performance, then went over to the patrol car, opened the rear door
and got in.

The Trooper observed him and went over to the patrol car,
opened the door asking the drunk what he thought he was doing

The drunk replied, "You might as well take my ass to jail,
cause there's no way in hell I can pass that test."

Sorry for clogging this thread again...
Swim class this morning. I don’t have a proper one piece swimsuit for actual swimming...just this wrap one for show, really (aiming to get a nice speedo this weekend...). Anybody else hate swim caps??? I feel like I look like a penis.

My name is <...> and I’m a Shopaholic.
I need help. I cant stop buying stuff. This was totally an impulse purchase and I definitely don’t need yet another jacket but it was such a steal, I just couldn’t resist.
One of several buys from today: a butter soft Camel coloured leather jacket for $120 (marked down from $600!!!!!)
P.S. the temperature around here better not dip too much soon so I can at least wear it for a little while this season.
P.P.S. I loooooove the smell of new leather...i can sniff this jacket all day long.
P.P.P.S I’m not wearing pants and my undies are embarrassingly too big, hence the censor-cloud, lol

Just checking in with my girls!! Had my first competition this weekend. It was extremely fun. You all look amazing!! Thought you guys might like to see these.

So went to try to exchange my baggage claim suit for a smaller size, but there were none left ?. So I got these 2 pairs of jeans (same style, just different rinses), plus this cropped polo shirt for the same price as the returned jumpsuit + another $4. Triple Score! I heart end-of-season sales.

Spur of the moment coffee date with BFF since its such a beautiful day this afternoon...

Another one from yesterday:
Like I said, milking dress-wearing weather: changed into this for dinner with Mr. and friends. I got pretty cold though ?

For sh*ts and giggles!
Been cleaning out our closets the past couple days (there are SIX garbage bags of clothes to be donated from my closet alone!), and tried on the Kid’s old 6th grade Halloween costume ??.
Rawr!
(It fit her much looser back then than on me now...good thing u can’t see my face as I am suffering from a serious wedgie...lololololzzz)

I wish I would have known how much of a thing body dysmorphia is. When I was 334 pounds I knew how big I was and considered myself gross and unattractive. Now that I'm smaller, I still see myself as that 334 pound woman even though others tell me how great I look now. I just don't see it and it's truly a thing that is totally messing with my head. I wonder when I get to goal if I will still see myself as morbidly obese or truly see what others see.
