It's a party!

Wanna join me as I celebrate the fact that I finally hit 80 lbs lost!?!?!?!

I can't even quite wrap my head around the fact that in the last 7 months, I've lost 80 lbs. That's just incredible. My BMI is down more than 10 points since I started, I've lost 2-3 pants sizes, and I feel about 100x better.

Linda sent me a wonderful package of clothes, including three size 24 capris. They are still a tad tight in the thighs and calves (of all places - weird for me!), but it won't be long until they fit. Oh, and they are women's petites, so I am thinking I could wear a regular women's, since at 5'10", I'm far from petite!

She also sent me an 18/20 sundress from Lane Bryant, and other than my hippy hips looking a little hippy in it, IT FITS! And fits well! I think it's cut a bit generous, but I don't care. IT FITS! In fact, I think I'm wearing it out to dinner tomorrow night with DH and MIL.

Tomorrow starts the marathon packing week. If you don't hear from me for a few days, it's because I'm in jail for strangling DH for annoying me. He's not the most, well, um, let's say not the biggest go-getter I've ever met. His typical idea of helping is standing there watching me. Someone promise me you'll bail me out if need be?
