Serious NSV!

Last year, after the wedding, I changed from my dress into a green t-shirt that I love. It's called "Burning Calories" and it has a carrot chasing some unhealthy foods around. To me, it's a funny shirt because when you're being healthy, you feel good. You want to kick your unhealthy self in the butt just a smidge. You want to chase it around and get it moving and get it to be a little healthier.

At the wedding, I had only brought 3 or 4 shirts with me and most were dirty.  I wanted to be comfortable and enjoy the party. I changed into a funny shirt and I remember feeling "unpretty" as soon as I put it on. I still had my full body spanx on and it was still tight. I pulled at the sleeves to make them a little bigger and streched the belly area.

At the time, I just remember thinking to suck in whenever anyone was taking photos. This photo below is when I was sucking in. I remember thinking my belly was too big. I remember thinking I wish I could just be small. All those feelings were rushing through my head on my wedding day....the time when a girl is suppose to feel pretty.

Tonight, I wore that shirt again but I didn't have to stretch it out. I didn't have to suck in all the time. I was comfortable and it was loose. It wasn't big but it was how I should have felt last year-confident and comfortable and happy. I am still far from skinny but I'm skinnier.

I was telling my friend Latte that I felt so good in it. She's a very nice girl. I often feel fat around her but I'm working on it. I know she doesn't want me to feel this way. When I pulled up the photo of last year in the shirt she said "you can tell a difference, especially around the stomach." Made me feel accomplished.

Here's the the Non-Scale Victories and the girl that's having them!
