Default I went shopping today!!!!

Yes, I had to check out KOHL's great sale and I had to buy some shirts, because I don't have any that fit. Fortunetely I still have some capris from before baby #2, but no summer type shirts (only size medium, which I am not, YET).

I LOVED IT!!!! I can wear a size large, no not an XL, 1x, or 2x, a simple, normal, every day size large!!!! And the shirts looked so cute. I also tried on a bathing suit out of curiousity and I'm telling you, I looked good (at least the top half did LOL), better than I have in some time.

All day I had that certain phrase was going through my head, "nothing tastes as good as skinny feels". That phrase is SO true. I'm not going to give up the feeling I had today, for a million french fries.

Oh and also, we decided to buy season passes at six flags this summer, because YOU KNOW WHO will be there, enjoying the rides, playing with her kids and not worrying about how she looks!

Today, I am celebrating a BIG loss (80 pounds of fat) and an even bigger gain (being me again)!
