Went Shopping Yesterday, But Still Feel Good

For once in my life I had the courage to go in to stores where I knew that nothing would fit, but I decided to get a preview lol. I did not find a lot of clothes for school this year, but got enough to tide me over, I WILL be losing a lot of weight throughout the year anyway. For once, I was not embarassed and I was not depressed, my mom and I did not fight over fits or over my horrible attitude. I am the worst person to shop with, mainly because I can not find things that are in style and that fit, and that I can afford. Anyways, I went into American Eagle (no nothing fits me there) and bought a little necklace and key chain with some charms that go on it. Well basically I was helping out a cause, the necklace was $1, the keychain was $1, and the charms are $1 a piece. I bought the necklace and 2 charms to go on them. I got Believe and Strength because I know I will need it to get through all this to be a more improved me. I thought this was a great idea especially since when you purchase these items, 1/2 of the purchase goes to American Eagle's Live Your Life Foundation. If you get the chance go by there and support yourselfs, and others with this simple purchase. There are all kinds of charms that can go on the necklace, some are: hope, dream, and strength. Just try it, oh yeah, can't wait to be able to shop at Rue21!!!!

I am so proud of you and for you. You are getting a handle on your health at a very young age. You'll get more out of life by actually getting to live it instead of just watching it. I'm still waiting on my band. I wish I could have done it years ago. It won't be long before you can shop anywhere you want. I'm a terrible shopper too. The only thing I like to buy is candles...they fit all. Once my weight comes off, I'll be dangerous. I'm going to make up for the last 15 years and shop till I drop.

I am yet to be banded also, the insurance said to call back on Tuesday to see if they had made up their minds yet. Everyone hope, wish, and pray with me so I can get this, I need it so bad
