I'm sitting here thinking...will there ever come a time in my life that I am not obsessed with losing weight? A day that I don't think about being thin? A day I don't wish the weight would come off faster? A day I don't question if I'm doing something wrong because I'm not losing as fast as I think I should be? A day I can walk into any clothing store and pick something off the rack that actually fits and looks nice? Just thinking......[emoji51]

I do realistically believe that I will always worry about my weight. Instead of worrying about losing now, I worry about regain. Because we have lived in a world of obesity for so long that worry will always be there.

I do think once you get to goal (and yes you can and will!), the worry looks and feels much different. It is not that self loathing when you look in the mirror and think, geez I just keep getting bigger and I don't know what to do about it because you do!

I think everyone of us wished it would come off faster but it really doesn't work that way. Just know that if you stick to the plan, you will get there.

Lastly the answer is YES, you will be able to cut up that Lane Bryant card and shop anywhere you like!!!! I know because I can do it and what's even crazier, you will LOVE it!

Keep your goals right in front of you and you will be there before you know it. Just be patient.

Lol....patience is the key on this journey! I just wish I could turn off those thoughts for one day [emoji3][emoji106]. Onward and downward!!
