Default Who's that lady?! Me!!

Totally awesome nsv shopping at the outlets with my husband this afternoon.

Didn't recognize myself in the reflection of a storefront ahead of us. There was a thinner lady walking with my husband! Totally freaked me out!!

Then I got over the freaking out and walked by again to see myself!

The shopping trip began with me getting into my husband's truck with him saying "Looking good!", its been a good day.

Thanks ladies!! I created the post from my phone so I couldn't type as much as I usually do.

It was so surreal, I knew you'd all understand better than anyone. It was like watching my husband walk towards me with another person that I didn't recognize (and why was SHE holding his hand??!?!). And then when I realized it was me, it was just a huge relief. I mean, I have so far to go still but I am like 2/3rds of the way there and I finally saw some progress today. I don't know if it's because we had warm enough weather to not wear coats or what (and yesterday at this time we had high winds and a foot of snow coming down!).

And...I never look at my reflection in windows or otherwise as I don't want to see myself. I have no idea why I even looked at "that lady" in the window, it must have been a sign from above to show my progress.

I love this so hard!

Its a wild experience to searching for a mirror/reflection to check yourself out, when you've spent so long avoiding them.

So exciting, so happy for you!
