NSV - I almost cried . . .

  • When I realized it.
    I took my little guy into the pool today, with no hesitation I put on my new bathing suit, no t-shirt, no tank top and no guys swim trunks either.
    Just dropped the towel and walked in . . . . with Pride.

    I literally almost cried when I realized that I had no hesitation, no worry, no concern with what anyone else was thinking about how I looked. I was proud of my body for the first time - in what I'm sure is my life - but I was proud.

    And what made it better, Jack had a wonderful time in the pool and there was NOTHING taking away from that.

    I had to share with the people that are most likely the only ones who will understand how huge of a step this was for me.
  • Congratulations!

    You should be proud of your success, because it looks like you are doing amazing!
  • Good for you Congrats
  • TOO COOL!
    I can't wait for that day. I can imagine I would be crying too!
    I do have a new swimsuit and I did feel better this time going out but not "proud" yet.
    You are an inspiration!
  • Oh that's wonderful!!! You should be very proud!! You have worked hard to get where you are! It's wonderful you gave your day with your son the full attention that it deserved, and that you both had a great time!! Keep it up sweety!!!
  • Thanks so much ladies . . . I'm still beaming from ear to ear right now.

    I think I've finally hit that turning point where I can say "Yes, I can do this"

    You are all so wonderful
