Default A pretty odd NSV, but I like it! :)

I had a dream last night that I pulled a pair of jeans out of my closet (a pair about 3 sizes too small that I have in my closet IRL), pulled them on and they fit! I felt great and practically bounced out the door in them.
This might not seem like a NSV, unless you know that I often have dreams about trying to put on clothes that won't fit, about feeling so heavy that I can't get up off the floor no matter how hard I try, etc.. So, to me, this signals a turning point for my line of thinking. I'm adopting more of a can-do, WILL-do attitude, rather than the self-deprecating tape that usually plays in my brain.

They say that dreams are premonitions of the future...and I hope they are right in this case!

Default Dreams, anxieties

Sounds better than my latest dreams. I kept having dreams the other night that I was eating too many Jello fat-free pudding cups. While they're on my diet, I try to limit them because of the sugar-carbs. (i.e. 1 a day, otherwise have a V-8 for a snack or fruit or something). I kept telling myself I couldn't have any more, and I didn't even want any more, but I kept picking up another and another and eating them.

I don't remember these types of anxieties the first time I lost weight...
