I'm so happy for you Dora!

Well everyone, I thought I had been on a plateau. I was feeling like a

frump girl today. I'm normally a very secure person in myself. Before I

had surgery, I always said that if people didn't like me the way that I am,

then I don't need there energy around me. I have read many people's post on

there plateau's, and I just thought I will be patient. Well, I haven't

weighed myself since July 7th, so I have no idea how much I have lost, but I

have on a pair of 14W strechy shorts. I have noticed lately that my 18's

are becoming more loose, but the 16's are still a bit uncomfortable if worn

to long. Anyway, I'm doing the happy dance and yeepee it's FRIDAY!
