I got that nice little alert today, telling me I am losing at a rapid pace...love it!
So last night I met one of my FS buddies in person! Erin is a delight, such a cool person, and as motivated as I am. What a wonderful gift from this site! Erin and I went shoe shopping, and I decided to try on tall boots, which have never fit around my calves. Zipped them right up! I didn't buy them because they were nearly $200, but now I have a new goal...
When I reach 185.0, I am going shopping for a cute sweater dress and some tall boots. Splurge!
When I thought of that goal, 185 sounded far away until I realized it is only 10 pounds away. I'm still getting my head around being under 200 lbs and what that means for what I can wear and how I must look. I don't have a good sense for how I look now, and I can't yet look at clothes and tell if they are going to fit or not. Pictures don't help, because in some I say "WOW, I'm small" and others I say "WOW, look at that roll of fat around my middle." I guess I just need to take some straight on photos for comparisons. I regret that I didn't take a before photo and measurements.
I have several meetings today that I'm excited about, I get to dress up when I leave my home office! But mostly I'm excited that I have another chance to help a school district get dropouts back in school. Please let them understand that I am there to help, not trick them out of the state's money.

I love the rapid pace alert. I only got it once. It is great that you met Erin. The last pair of boots I bought was from Woman Within website for plus sizes. I love them but am really hoping they are too big when I put them on this winter. I am sending good vibes for your out in the field meetings today!

I had such a great time last night getting to meet you. And for everyone reading this journal, I can personally attest to the fact that those boots she tried on were amazing and she rocked them! I can hardly wait until I can wear boots like that.
I am wishing you great success in your meetings today. Not only is it for a great cause, it wouldn't hurt to have a little extra cash to get those boots when you hit 185.

Many of my shoes are too big now! I bet yours will be, too, Neptune (I don't know your name!). Erin, it was great, I felt very blessed to have the opportunity to get to know you, and i"m looking forward to more get-togethers when you get back. My first meeting was pretty good, on to Deer Valley, now!
