You know what bugs ME!?

Ok, well.. NO one here knows that I've lost or been losing weight.

I heard this idiot guy at work today, bragging that he's lost 10 lbs. I wanna run over there and grab him by the ears, yell in his face, spit and all, "I've lost almost 70!" .... but *I'm* not freakin' bragging about it.

*note* I've lost about 30ish lbs since I started working with them all. Probably not a noticeable amount... but I'm sure it would be noticeable if they saw me 6 months ago.

That's why you have to get home at Christmas because if people that know you don't notice you've lost weight they would have to be blind or just, well.....stupid!!!

I KNOW, IT"S SO STUPID, I DON'T UNDERSTAND!!!!! I saw someone a couple of days ago, I havent seen in about a year. I would have weighed over 340 lbs last year. I now weight about 282. Minimum 60+ weight loss. Didn't say a f'...n word!!!!!:) ......stupid idiot!!:)

Here's an NSV that is important to Green: I can now put my clothes in the dryer without worrying that they will shrink. Yippee!

To some people, fat is fat. It's almost like you have to get to "portly" from "fat" before people will notice. My band buddy Jane has lost a little less than me but because she began with a much lower BMI she looks now totally transformed. Everyone has noticed her, only a few have noticed my loss. Nobody knows about us being banded, so they're not expecting changes in us.

Good NSV, Green!!!

Yesterday, instead of going to penningtons, where I've shopped for like 10 years, I decided to go to the mall. I asked my daughter if she minded if we stopped into Cotton Ginny, I havent been to there store since my youngest was born, there sizes didnt go big enough for me. Well, I was like a kid at Christmas, trying on everything!!! Even my 17 year old was having fun. Here mom, try on this!!! It was a great moment! I'm happy!!

Oh, and I came home with 2 sweaters and compfy track pants!!

That is great Cloe!! Yay!

Track pants...hmmmm....wellllll....okay...but next time I want you to buy some skinny jeans!!!

Yeah, I agree Yoda. I hate track pants, Actually we have a rule in our house, no track pants outside the house, especially the guys, I really do hate them. However, I thought with winter coming on, it would be really nice to have something comfy to wear after work and before bed.

Congratulations Cloe! Cotton Ginny is one of my favourite stores. They always have good sales and their clothes are made of natural fibres. That is a big deal for me because I tend to sweat a lot. And I am one of those people who is a true Winter and only looks good in black, white, gray, and red - they always have clothes in black and gray, even in the summer! Yep, I love Cotton Ginny and I know you are going to love it, too.

We used to have a Cotton Ginny but they closed. I now have to go to Ottawa if I want to shop there so when I'm there I usually buy a lot. Something about the comfort of cotton....
