Feel so different!

It really hit me this morning how changed I am, both physically and mentally. Well, first of all I looked at my pictures I took last night at a Dead Celebrity dress up party I was at and I was really taken aback at how good I looked. I know that sounds vain, but it was more about my size than anything.

I hardly look like myself in this picture, or at least the myself that I used to be. I spent some time this morning looking back at some old pictures, some from only a year or so ago, and the transformation is fantastic. I also don't think I look like I weight 270lbs in this picture either, though that is more lucky angle I think.

So that was good, but then this morning I went to breakfast with my parents (who were in town for a retirement party last night) and they both were really taken with my appearance. I looked like hell (a little hung over from the night before, no make up on, my hair looked terrible) and normally I would have gotten some comments on that, but all they could say was how much I've lost and how different I look. Also, during breakfast, I was full after only half my breakfast so I stopped eating and they were really impressed by that, as it is a pretty huge change in behaviour for me. I know they are really proud of me, and I am proud of me too. I have a long ways to go, but I'm doing it and it is working.
