My sister got married last night. I have mixed feelings about it. I want her to be happy but I've seen her be miserable with him for the last 5 years. God can do miracles though.....I do believe that. I had a few comments from some people there last night. The good one first...."You sure are looking good!". But the one that bothered me was the....."So now that you are getting skinny you can wear something pretty". Not sure how to take that one. My husband and my friend both say it's just jealousy talking. This is one of the reasons I didn't want to tell people that I am trying to get healthy, I have a hard time with the rude comments. It wouldn't be so bad if it were just strangers that I didn't know and didn't have to see again but......it's my family. Then they start making judgment on what I should and shouldn't eat at every family gathering. I have found myself overeating or eating the wrong things just so I won't get any comments from them....I try to make it look like I am still eating unhealthy just so they won't feel guilty about what they eat and take it out on me. Is this CRAZY or what? And I'm the one who always stands up for myself in most other situations....especially with my family. uuugghhhh!
The dress I wore was cute. It was dark blue and short....well, to my knees, I usually wear dresses that are pretty long so this was different for me. It felt fun on and I did feel good in it. But after I saw some pictures of me in it I felt terrible. I said " am never wearing that dress again". It is sleeveless but I wore a t-shirt under it kinda like a jumper hoping to somewhat cover my arms. Well, I should have wore a sweatshirt under it......my arms looked so huge.....I'm embarrassed now. I cropped my arm out of the photo. So here I am .....armless! lol
I got the final results of my test and had a few excellents on it and mostly goods! I was a bit shocked considering the person that was scoring me. She was a very small young skinny girl and I felt really intimidated. I had the best testing partner though!

That is a beautiful picture of you. Don't let ignorant people get you down, you have to due what is best for you and you alone. Let them keep their comments to themselves. Keep up the good work!

I think you look absolutely beautiful! Put your arms back on. :) You know we are always our own worst critics.
