So I got a text from a friend from college that I haven't seen in nearly two years, asking if I wanted to meet up with a bunch of friends for dinner. I promptly said "Of course!" and thought to myself that I am happy I look good today.... wait, I look good today? I am happy with how I look? That's not something I say.. ever. I do not remember the last time that I was genuinely happy with how I look. There is always something wrong. I mean, Im not at my goal, and I am still working to get there, but I am comfortable in my own skin. I am OK with where I am at. I realized that I now have a confidence in myself that I have not had in.. well ever.. and that feels amazing!

I was mad excited about this, and had to share it with you guys

When was the first time that you ladies realized your new found confidence?

Yay! Congrats!! I realized I was gaining confidence when I wore a sleeveless dress on halloween and never once worried about covering up my arms that I used to hide at all costs. I was so pleased! We're pretty close in height/weight and I'm definitely feeling my confidence reach new heights that I never even imagined! Keep up the awesome work and I'm sure there will be sooo many amazing feelings coming your way!

I can totally relate to this but I am not quite there yet!! All the little things are starting to add up and my confidence is slowing building from the nothingness I started with.
I've been invited to my hubby's company dinner every year and I've declined every year... because I didn't want my hubby's co-workers to know I was fat! So I stayed at home while my hubby went.
This year? I said yes!! And I am no where near goal but I feel like I can finally go now!!
