Yesterday was Mother's Day and I went out and bought myself a dress. Not earth-shattering, yet sort of a thrill to buy something for myself for a change instead of for my daughter. Fact is, my old, pre-baby skirts and dresses still don't fit me. I have to be realistic that A) if I want to fit back into them, I'm going to have to actually put some effort into losing weight and B) it will take many months for that to happen, so may as well have something nice to wear in the meantime. I swear with all my heart that I'm not giving up. I just know that if I don't feel nice in my clothes, I feel far, far less motivated to eat right and get exercise.
Oh...yes! The dress: it's a knee length sleeveless chocolate brown linen job and I love it.
