So many awesome things are happening. I went to the doctor yesterday for my first physical since I was 10 (I'm 22 now), and it was damn-near perfect! All of my stats are at desired levels and I really seem to have absolutely nothing to worry about as far as that's concerned.

This new fella I'm seeing lifted me up with no problem; I was shocked -- I mean, I still weigh 200lbs so I'm under the assumption that that's still pretty heavy. And I know I weigh 40lbs more than him. It was definitely unexpected, but I'm not complaining! It's great to know that I can actually be lifted, lol.

I'm also pretty sure I overheard a child telling her mother how pretty I was. I saw a little girl look over in my direction, say something like "Mommy she looks pretty!" followed by, "I know, she always looks pretty!" and I looked around, and I honestly didn't know who else they could be talking about, so I just assumed it was me, lol. It made me feel awesome, even if they weren't talking about me, just the thought that complete strangers are potentially commenting on my looks is pretty exciting.

Like I said on FB, I believe I've found my happy place.

This post made me smile. (also, your user name made me smile!) - it's such a wonderful feeling when those little unexpected moments happen that justify all the hard work put into losing weight!
