Talking Hooray, an NSV!!!
Today I ran into a woman that I met after my first son was born almost 7 years ago.

Generally, if I see people I haven't seen in a while, I try to disappear into the ground. If I am not recognized, I will do nothing to draw attention to myself and say hello. B/c if I do, then I must resign myself to the person's noticing and registering my very obvious weight gain.

Today I was felt fit and trim and called out, "Christi-- hi!!" She took some time to register who I was and then we had a lovely little chat. This time I noticed she registered that I was looking darn good!! I didn't have a lick of makeup on and I was in casual work clothing... but I felt great and I think I looked it too!!!

For me, this is a huge non scale victory!!

thanks for reading!

I have to admit that at times, I too have skulked away from someone I've recognized. So I totally understand the awesomeness of what you did. Congrats!!

I am sooooo guilty of this. I do not like seeing people in fear of what they must be thinking. I am so self conscious. I am getting better as i feel better. on your NSV. They feel so good!!
