So although it isn't really a big deal on the great scale of things in the world, I did something tonight I haven't done in years. I bought something in a non-fat-girl store. A clothing something. Now given it was a larger size, as I still WARRANT a larger size. But for the first time in over 10 years I'm actually small enough to fit into clothes in a "normal" store.
It about made me cry. How amazingly lame that we let soceity put that sort of pressure on us to fit in. You'd think that at the ripe old age of 37 I wouldn't give a fig anymore.

I can completely relate to everything you said. While it is great to feel "normal" again, it is frustrating to think of it in those terms. Congratulations on being a few pounds healthier!

You'll always be a size six in my world, Baby!
