This year I got a gift card to White house black market. I LOVE this store......Its always been one of those stores I window shop in. I just stare into the windows and dream lol I might even drool alittle. So after a couple of months of window shopping (poor jeff). I found the item I wanted to purchase. .....I stalked the dress online until it went into the clearance and got it for half off! Go me :). They didnt have my size online....They had the size bigger and the size smaller....so I talked to jeff about it and he said order the smaller size you will fit in it some day. ( I looked at him like he was crazy). So what did I do? I ordered the size smaller! what was I thinking!! It is much easier to make a bigger dress fit me.....I should know this my (awesome) mother is a amazing seamstress.
So after a week of waiting for it to come. The day came, it was sitting on our front door step. I was so excited, it is beautiful!!!! So I put it on and went to jeff to have him zip it up....( I did the whole suck in as much as you can so the zipper will close things).....and to my surprise it fit perfectly!
It may sound so stupid, I almost cryed. I fit in my goal size after this long 2 year journey of getting healthy and losing weight. It has been a whole lifestyle change. I did it! These past 2 years have been amazing. Thanks to my wonderful husband for all his support and his patience for all my healthy cooking mess ups. I have had more energy then I have ever had, I have more self esteem and I look better.....But best of all is when my doctors are impressed with how healthy I am!!! So we took a picture of me in the dress to say thank you to Mom S. for such a beautiful dress.
And a picture of Jeff to say thank you Mom S. for making such a handsome, Wonderful and amazing husband!
Awwww. . . you guys make me cry!! I love you both so much and miss you more. I am so proud of both of you for your journey and healthy lifestyle. It is so fun talking with Ryan on the phone about different recipes, etc. You both keep up the good work. It truly shows and you are both beautiful. Love having you both in our lifes. Love, Mom S!
